The fourth dose of the vaccine protects against severe disease and subsequent hospitalization due to the coronavirus, but not from infection by the virus, said the Director of Pharmaceutical Services, Elena Panagiotopoulou.

Speaking to State Radio, she even said that the administration of the fourth dose to people under the age of 60 is being studied.

At the same time she appeared reassuring with regard to monkeypox.

She stressed that by the end of July Cyprus will receive an American vaccine to prevent the disease.

He urged the public not to worry as he said monkeypox cannot be easily transmitted.
