BOGOTA (Reuters) – The World Health Organization may clear AstraZeneca’s COVID-19 vaccine for emergency use as early as this week, a Pan American Health Organization (PAHO) official said on Wednesday.
“AstraZeneca’s vaccine is under evaluation. We expect the authorization of emergency use to come out Friday or next Monday,” said PAHO Assistant Director Jarbas Barbosa during the group’s weekly briefing.
China’s Sinopharm and Sinovac shots may get pre-qualification or emergency use approval by early March, Barbosa added.
