Polio and Cholera vaccinations in Ramadan during the night

Health Protection Agency (HPA) has said that they would arrange so that people leaving the country would receive their Polio and Cholera vaccinations during night time.

An official from the HPA told Sun Media today that they have decided to keep the health centers open for the Polio and Cholera vaccines.

“Polio and Cholera vaccines are oral vaccines so it cannot be administered during the day time, no? So we decided to give the service at night.” The HPA official said.

HPA says that the vaccination would go from 9:30 p.m. to 10:30 p.m. on Sundays, Tuesdays and Thursdays.

The two vaccines are given to people leaving on the Hajj Pilgrimage and to Pakistan and some other countries.
