A person has full immunity to the virus about two weeks after getting the second dose of coronavirus jab, Deputy Head of the National Centre for Disease Control (NCDC), Paata Imnadze, said in an interview with Georgian First Channel’s program “Akhali Dge” (New Day).

Imnadze claims double-jabbed citizens do not need to wear a face mask around fully vaccinated people.

“If you are around fully vaccinated people, you do not need to wear a face mask. You can hug them, and sit at the same time,” Imnadze underscored.

Earlier today, Georgia reported 954 coronavirus cases, 896 recoveries, and 30 deaths.

As of today, 149,191 people got the coronavirus vaccine.
