Do I need to be notified for the second injection?

COVID-19 vaccine generally needs two injections, and the first and second injections need to be separated for a period of time, and the interval should not be too short or too long, usually between three weeks and eight weeks. Some people will notify you by SMS after the first injection, so it is enough to finish the vaccination within the specified time.
