Saudi Arabia’s Ministry of Health has updated its health measures for the 2025 Hajj season, reaffirming its commitment to safeguarding the health and safety of pilgrims. These updates aim to strengthen health prevention efforts and ensure the delivery of high-quality medical services while optimizing the effectiveness of healthcare provided to pilgrims. The goal is to create a safe and healthy environment, allowing pilgrims to perform their rituals peacefully at the holy sites.
The measures include assessing the physical fitness of pilgrims, mandatory vaccinations, and various health protocols and recommendations.
