沙特阿拉伯衛生部今天發表聲明，宣布任何穆斯林想要向麥加進行年度朝j朝聖活動，都必須提供書面證明，證明他們已經收到了 COVID-19 疫苗刺針。

沙特衛生官員在聲明中表示，疫苗接種將是“參與的主要條件”，此前衛生部長Tawfiq Al Rabiah表示，所有朝聖者都必須進行“強制接種”。

所有能夠奉行朝j的穆斯林一生都必須至少這樣做一次。朝聖包括一系列為期五天的儀式，在伊斯蘭教的精神之家麥加及其周邊地區有XNUMX萬人參加。穆斯林認為，這些儀式為抹平過去的罪惡並在上帝面前重新開始提供了機會。

衛生部沒有具體說明將於17月19日晚上開始的今年的朝j是否將朝聖者趕出沙特阿拉伯，以防止COVID-1,000的傳播。去年的儀式僅限於居住在沙特阿拉伯的XNUMX名朝聖者。

沙特阿拉伯的疫苗接種計劃於17月XNUMX日開始，Moderna，Pfizer和AstraZeneca戳刺已獲批准使用。

到目前為止，沙特官員說，已經有377,700例COVID-19病例，沙特王國報告了約6,500例與冠狀病毒相關的死亡。
