The Ukrainian population to be vaccinated with CoronaVac
In particular, Ukraine s Minister of Health Maxim Stepanov said that the issue was politicized. All manufacturers in the world without exception that produce vaccines, those that have provided reports, the companies that have registered vaccines . we have been negotiating with them since May. Just like with COVAX. Therefore, all this is about manipulations - some politicians are trying to intimidate the Ukrainians, he said.
Earlier, Stepanov said that Ukraine would purchase the Chinese vaccine if its effectiveness was at least 70 percent. However, on January 11, Lekhim group of pharmaceutical companies announced an agreement with Sinovac for the supplies of five million doses of the drug to Ukraine in the first half of 2021. It is also planned to launch the production of this vaccine in Ukraine in 2022.
