Director of National Vaccination Program at the Ministry, Dr. Nidal Abu Rashid ,confirmed that the Vaccine is safe without any important side effects that harm children health, because the  Ministry of health is keen  to have  the best types of vaccine in the world.

Dr. Nidal  stressed  that vaccines protect children and society from serious diseases which cause death or disability , but they don’t prevent common diseases like cough, diarrhea, and cold,  noting that vaccine is free and available in all health centers.
