LIMA (Reuters) - Peru’s interim president said on Thursday his administration had locked in a deal with Pfizer to purchase 20 million doses of its coronavirus vaccine, a major milestone as the Andean nation scrambles to jumpstart a mass vaccination program.
President Francisco Sagasti said that by April Peru would receive at least 500,000 doses of Pfizer’s COVID-19 vaccine co-developed with German partner BioNTech. The first 250,000 doses are slated for arrival in March, he said.
