Makkah, June 27, 2021, SPA -- The Ministry of Hajj and Umrah reasserted the importance that those permitted to perform the rituals of the forthcoming Hajj take the second dose of the Coronavirus' vaccine before entering Hajj premises. The authority also urged them to each visit the nearest inoculation center, within 48 hours, following the issuance of the permit, without prior appointment. The step takes place, emanating from the keenness of the Saudi Government to take all precautionary measures to limit the spread of the pandemic and preserve the safety of all pilgrims. --SPA 21:30 LOCAL TIME 18:30 GMT 0037 www.spa.gov.sa/w1577433
