I strongly urge people not to waste, not to wait, not to consider, to get vaccinated.
I strongly urge people not to waste, not to wait, not to think, to look for the vaccine they want to be vaccinated with. That way, you will anticipate the destination out of sight. What you may know is that maybe everything is fine, but maybe a virus is waiting for you around the corner. And he is waiting for them in the next few days, ”said the president.
