As uptake of Covid-19 vaccines drops, Pfizer doses to be supplied on demand

Health Ministry officials say they will request COVAX to halt supply if the vaccination rate does not increase. Nepal receives over 4 million Covid-19 vaccine doses on Friday and Saturday.

As the uptake of Covid-19 vaccine has seen a downward trend across the country in the past few days, the Ministry of Health and Population has decided to supply Pfizer-BioNTech doses to the districts as per the demand and on the basis of their use.
