Iranian President Hassan Rouhani urged the country's residents to continue to comply with the rules imposed in connection with the coronavirus pandemic, given the limited release of vaccines and their uneven distribution in the world, Tasnim reported.

He also warned the people against underestimating the situation and called for observing the restrictions imposed in connection with COVID-19.

People should remember that the production of a vaccine against coronavirus in the world has restrictions, and the production of a vaccine for the entire population is impossible, he noted.

Travel to Iranian cities classified in the red and orange zones will be prohibited during the holiday break, the president added.
