Gov’t won’t deny unvaccinated people access to hospital

If you’re not vaccinated, the gov’t isn’t going to deny you access to hospital: Unvaccinated patients seeking treatment at a state hospital are exempt from the decision prohibiting the unjabbed from accessing government facilities, Health Ministry spokesperson Hossam Abdel Ghaffar told Youm7. Starting 1 December, members of the public will need to show proof that they have received at least one dose of covid-19 vaccine to enter government facilities.

The Health Ministry reported 946 new covid-19 infections yesterday, up from 935 the day before. Egypt has now disclosed a total of 344,907 confirmed cases of covid-19. The ministry also reported 68 new deaths, bringing the country’s total death toll to 19,567.
