Nanayakkara said that he had contracted the disease recently and had antibodies which would be effective for another six months or so.
Minister Nanayakkara was found infected with the COVID-19 coronavirus in early January.
The Ministers said the national vaccination drive had got underway and all Sri Lankans would be inoculated within the next three months.
