		</div><p>Saudi Arabia says it is giving half a million riyals, the equivalent of £96,000, to the family of each medical worker who died fighting the coronavirus pandemic in the kingdom.</p>
<p>An announcement made on Sunday said the financial award would apply to all health care workers who died as a result of the virus, including non-Saudis and personnel who worked in private-sector settings.</p>
<p>The Health Ministry has not said publicly how many of the kingdom’s 8,320 pandemic deaths involved health workers.</p>
<p>Saudi Arabia, which has a population of 30 million, has administered nearly 30 million vaccine doses. The kingdom is currently reporting fewer than 1,000 new cases a day.</p>
<p>Early on in the pandemic, King Salman ordered the government to cover the cost of medical treatment for Covid-19 patients in the country.</p>
<p>Saudi Arabia has recorded close to 533,000 confirmed cases overall, and currently has about 1,400 considered critical.</p>
