King Salman bin Abdulaziz of Saudi Arabia has vaccinated Corona.

He took the first dose of Pfizer's invented ticker on Friday.

Saudi Arabia's health minister, Tawfiq al-Rabia, said Salman bin Abdul Aziz had taken the vaccine to publicize the government's policy of "prevention is better than cure" in addition to protecting itself.

Saudi Arabia has approved the vaccine after Bahrain in the Middle East.

Important members of the royal family, including Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman and his brother Khalid bin Salman, have already been vaccinated.
