Vaccines flown into Nepal by Bahraini prince on Everest mission likely to be used along with China-gifted jabs

Nepal is bringing Sinopharm vaccines, the same one the member of the Bahrain royal family brought, next week. But reports suggest three doses might be needed because the Chinese shots in some cases have not generated enough protective antibodies.

After weeks of confusion over the coronavirus vaccines, around 2,000 doses, brought to Nepal from Bahrain, the government is mulling over using them when it starts administering the jabs provided by the Chinese government under grant assistance.
