NASSAU, BAHAMAS Pan American Health Organization (PAHO) Assistant Director Dr Jarbas Barbosa indicated yesterday The Bahamas can make the “best decision” with distribution of its first tranche of AstraZeneca vaccines.
His comments came as the World Health Organization’s (WHO) COVAX Facility advises countries on the timeframe in receiving their first, second and third allocations of vaccine doses.
Minister of Health Renward Wells announced this week the first tranche of 100,000 doses of AstraZeneca, which is expected to arrive in-country by week’s end, will likely be rolled out to provide the same number of people with their first dose of the vaccine.
