Haj pilgrims required to prove health
- Saudi Arabia: Thursday, August 06 - 2009 at 11:32
Haj pilgrims required to prove health Saudi Arabia's ministry of health has said that Haj pilgrims arriving in the kingdom will be required to show proof that they have received flu shots at home and to provide health certificates showing that they do not have chronic diseases. "No one will be able to get a visa without fulfilling these new rules," the ministry has said. The ministry is also considering restricting Haj pilgrims to between 12 and 65, but said each country's Haj quota will be unaffected. To date Saudi Arabia has reported over 600 H1N1 sufferers, with six deaths.
