Mass vaccination of the population will launch with the AstraZeneca or the Chinese vaccine and the start date will be announced once we’re sure that jabs are en route to North Macedonia, Health Minister Venko FIlipche told reporters on Saturday during a visit to the Kochani General Hospital.
“Manufacturers are facing challenges in delivering vaccines across the globe. Some reports say that jabs should arrive at the end of March or beginning of April, but having in mind past experience and that of other countries and the COVAX facility, who are all facing the same issue, we’ll make the announcement once we’re sure that vaccines are en route to North Macedonia,” Filipche said.
