NUWAKOT: The health office in Nuwakot district has decided to vaccinate against COVID-19 infection twice a week to make it accessible to all. According to the Health Office, Nuwakot, the second dose and booster dose vaccination services are being provided every Monday and Wednesday from now on.
According to Amrit Maharjan, immunization officer at the health office, the vaccinated people are requested to contact the health center at Bidur Municipality-2 on Monday and Trishuli Hospital on Wednesday.
Similarly, 12 local levels of the district have also decided to provide vaccination services by determining vaccination centers from now on.

All people over the age of 12 are urged to be vaccinated as access to vaccines is the most appropriate way to protect against the risk of infection. In Nuwakot, the vaccination service against coronavirus has been made accessible to all.
