Speaking at a video clip on Saturday, January 29, 2022, Qalandar Ebad said protecting oneself is one of the obligations of the Islam religion and that vac-cine is the most effective way to fight the virus.
“Fortunately, Afghanistan has imported millions of doses of COVID-19 vaccines that are now available in provincial centers of all provinces and some dis-tricts of the 34 provinces.” Said Ebad.This comes as the threat of the pandemic is not so much serious in Afghanistan and the people have almost forgotten about the virus as it is going through the worst humanitarian crisis.
