The people who passed away are a 57-year-old citizen from Tirana, a 76-year-old man from Vlora and an 84-year-old citizen from Fier.
The Ministry of Health appealed to the citizens to get vaccinated in order “to protect themselves and your loved ones, as well as to stop the spread of the dangerous virus”.
August is an open month of COVID-19 vaccination for every citizen over 18 years old. Anti-COVID vaccines reduce the chance of infection and greatly avoid hospitalizations and fatalities.
“If you suspect that you are affected by COVID19 or have signs of the disease, isolate yourself immediately and contact your family doctor in order to be tested, or call the National Emergency on the unique number 127”, the ministry writes.
