The National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control (NAFDAC) has said it has not received any application from Covid Vaccine manufacturer and therefore no vaccines have been approved by the Agency.
This was disclosed on Friday by the Director-General of the Agency, Prof. Mojisola Adeyeye at a virtual media briefing in Abuja.
Adeyeye said there are reports of fake vaccines in Nigeria, pleading with the public to beware as no COVID-19 vaccines have been approved by the Agency and fake vaccines can cause Covid-like illnesses or other serious diseases that could kill.
“Covid-19 vaccines are new, and the side effects or adverse events must be well monitored, therefore, if NAFDAC does not approve, the public should not use”. She added.
