A 97-year-old UAE citizen
receives the first dose of
the COVID-19 vaccine at a
“SEHA” center
(Abu
Dhabi, UAE) -
Nekhaira Obaid Saeed Al
Dhaheri, 97, received the
first dose of the COVID-19
vaccine at SEHA’s Neima
Healthcare Center.
Commenting on Al Dhaheri’s
decision, his son said: “My
97-year-old father decided
to join the rest of the
family in taking the
vaccine, we encouraged him
to do so in line with the
UAE’s leadership’s direction
and in support of the
nation’s efforts to beat the
pandemic and protect the
community.
We visited
Neima Healthcare Center
where the doctor first
assessed my father’s health
to confirm his eligibility
before administering the
vaccine. I encourage the
community, particularly
senior citizens and
residents, to take the
COVID-19 vaccine in order to
protect themselves and their
loved ones. I also encourage
everyone to refer to
official sources for
information around the
vaccine, and not to pay
attention to rumors.”
