Third Dose of Covid-19 Vaccine in Israel
Since July 30, 2021, more than a million fully vaccinated Israeli residents who were 60 years or age or older have received a third dose of the BNT162b2 mRNA vaccine. As of August 31, the rate of confirmed Covid-19 infection was lower in the booster group than in the nonbooster group by a factor of 11.3, and the rate of severe illness was lower by a factor of 19.5.

Should "60 years or age" be "60 years of age"?It is for the first time I witnessed a grammatical mistake or typo in the introduction of an important original article on the homepage of the prestigious medical science magazine the New England Journal of Medicine, who is a global leader in the medical community.
