Chile will offer the fourth booster dose of the covid-19 vaccine to high-risk citizens in February, Chilean President Sebastián Piñera announced in a statement.

"Probably, in the month of February, or when necessary, we will start the vaccination with the fourth dose, because our first concern and priority is to protect the health and life of our compatriots," said Piñera.

Chile began offering the first booster vaccines in August.
