Madrid: Emergency crews in central Spain will form vaccine convoys through the snow, after clearing 500 roads and rescuing some 1500 stranded people, allowing a weekly shipment of the Pfizer-BioNTech coronavirus vaccine to be distributed to regional health authorities.
The Spanish government said it would on Monday send convoys carrying the COVID-19 vaccine and food supplies to areas cut off by Storm Filomena, the country's worst snowstorm in recent memory, which has killed four people.
