Washington, Dec 19 (efe-epa).- With the help of the United States armed forces, logistics personnel were on Saturday filling thousands of cold-storage boxes with the Moderna’s Covid-19 vaccine, a day before they were set to distribute them to over 3,700 places across the country.
The first of these vaccines are set to be administered from Monday.
“Boxes are being packed and loaded today,” said US Army General Gus Perna, head of the Operation Warp Speed, launched by the White House with the help of the Pentagon to speed up the vaccination drive.
Perna held a press conference on Saturday to inform about the campaign’s progress.
