APA – Accra (Ghana)
The report on Ghana's COVID-19 vaccination programme and the arrival of 350,000 doses of the Oxford AstraZeneca vaccines in Accra on Friday morning is one of the trending stories in the Ghanaian press on Friday.
The Graphic reports that after weeks of apprehension over the fate of Ghana's COVID-19 vaccination programme, the exercise looks set to resume soon after 350,000 doses of the Oxford AstraZeneca vaccines landed in Accra on Friday morning.
It arrived around 5am, May 7, aboard a Turkish Airline fight to kick-start the second phase of the nationwide vaccination.
Fears that the programme could be held back heightened when the second batch of doses from the COVID-19 Vaccine Global Access Facility (COVAX) facility, expected from India, were not forthcoming.
