BERLIN, March 9 Bosnia’s foreign minister voiced anger today that her country had yet to receive any of the promised vaccines from the EU-backed Covax scheme, saying Bosnians were “justifiably unhappy”.
“We expect Covax to fulfil its contractual obligations,” Bosnian Foreign Minister Bisera Turkovic told a press conference during a visit to Berlin.
She said Bosnia had met its obligations and paid for more than 1.2 million doses through the international Covax scheme, a global vaccine-sharing effort, but “not a single dose” had arrived to date.
Over the past few weeks, Serbia has donated thousands of much-needed batches of vaccines to the countries, spreading goodwill as well as a sense of collegiality and neighborly relations, during the COVID crisis.
Serbia ranks among the top five countries in the world in terms of the successful per million rate of vaccination of its citizens. According to the rate of second jabs per million, Serbia is number 1 in Europe and fifth in the world after Israel, Seychelles, the UAE and the US.
It is also a rare country that has at its disposal all four leading vaccine types – AstraZeneca, Pfizer, Sputnik V and Sinovac – having started its acquisition process ahead of many countries. Its key decision was not to rely on just one provider. Adding to that, Serbian authorities have already announced that Moderna is also on its way. Some 1.6 million people out of some seven million have been vaccinated once and another 600,000 have received the second jab.
