The union accused the health minister of misguiding the public through false information.
On Thursday, Fearne told the media that between 50 to 60 doses were lost on Wednesday due to delays resulting from directives issued by the MUMN.
Fearne claimed that procedures regarding the mixing of vaccines changed after the union issued directives. He said that the directive limited the number of vials that are reconstituted on site. So the government started reconstituting several vaccines from a central location, then taking the vaccines to the centres.
