Anthony urges public to take booster shots as some fully vaccinated persons contracting COVID

As he encouraged Guyanese to get booster jabs because of possible waning of antibody levels, Minister of Health Dr. Frank Anthony yesterday said that data from current COVID-19 positive cases has found that some of those infected had been fully vaccinated.

“Right now a lot of people may be positive but have very mild symptoms and a lot may be experiencing flu-like symptoms but are not being tested. Those who come to the hospital because they need care, we would test and we collect the history [medical] to know if they are boosted and so forth,” Anthony told Stabroek News yesterday.
