This year, the holy month of Ramadan is expected to begin on Saturday 2 April 2022 and end on Sunday 1 May 2022 (depending on the sighting of the moon).
Ramadan is ninth month of the Islamic lunar calendar and a time when many Muslims across the world do not eat or drink during daylight hours for 29 to 30 days. It is also a time of self-reflection and self-evaluation.
To help support our patients and colleagues in staying healthy during this month, we’ve published a leaflet on Ramadan and your health.
The leaflet has information on fasting during the pandemic and frequently asked questions about taking the covid-19 vaccine while fasting.
