Peru conforms to anti-COVID-19 vaccine from China

 


 Although one of the vaccines with the greatest skepticism is the Chinese one, Peru has settled for it to try to stop the pandemic in the country.

 

According to the report, this Latin American country has received one million Chinese doses and has the goal of immunizing 450,000 health workers, as a priority group. For later, continue with the rest of the population.

 

Although the country has also received vaccines from Pfizer's US against COVID-19, these are limited to 50 thousand and those used to "immunize" health personnel are the Chinese doses of Sinopharm.

 

The head of the Cabinet, Violeta Bermúdez, clarified that many more vaccines are expected from Pfizer: "This is a first batch that reaches the completion of the 20 million doses that we have contracted with Pfizer."

 

Currently and according to the June 2020 census, Peru has a population of 32 million 625 thousand 948 people. Which indicates that just over 12 million (if it is considered to vaccinate the entire population), would access the eastern dose.
