Hajjeh said that there are many new variants whose risk
level was not yet determined, and stressed the efficiency of the
COVID-19 vaccines. She also said that Jordan was among the first countries in the region
to speed up the vaccination process, adding that it has vaccinated around 45
percent of the population so far.
According to Hajjeh, all countries, including Jordan,
should evaluate the epidemiological situation and ways to deal with it. WHO,
she said, recommends that Jordan vaccinate 70 percent of the population until
the end of July.
