A warning from AstraZeneca that initial supplies of its COVID-19 vaccinations to Europe will be lower than expected has sparked new concern over the rollout of inoculations, with some countries planning for a sharp drop in deliveries.
Friday’s announcement by the British pharmaceutical firm followed another last week by Pfizer, which said it would delay shipments of its vaccine for up to a month due to works at its key plant in Belgium.
The companies’ warnings come with worry deepening over new COVID-19 variants, particularly one that emerged in Britain and which is more infectious than the original strain.
Overall, Europe has now recorded more than 692,000 deaths and nearly 32 million infections.
The Ministry of Health and Prevention has announced that 87,720 doses of the #COVID-19 vaccine were given in the past 24 hours.
The total number of doses provided up to Saturday stands at 2,426,793 with a rate of vaccine distribution of 24.54 doses per 100 people.
The MoHAP announced that it conducted 174,172 additional COVID-19 tests and detected 3,566 new cases.
