Prime Minister Imran Khan, on the other hand, was not entirely vaccinated when he contracted the virus, according to the Ministry of Health Services.
He only received the first dose two days ago, which is far too soon for ANY vaccine to be successful. Antibodies form 2-3 weeks after the second dose of a two-dose COVID vaccine.
On March 18, Prime Minister Imran Khan received his first dose of COVID-19, a vaccine against the deadly disease.
