In a feature with the Times of Malta, Superintendent for Public Health Professor Charmaine Gauci revealed that pregnant women and children will not receive immediate COVID-19 vaccination.
This is due to the fact that clinical research and trials have been focused more on adults, with little children contracting the virus or having major complications.
Prof. Gauci also revealed that the authorities are considering the provision of a document of proof of vaccination.
