Relief in S. Africa as first vaccines arrive Each country faces different challenges, she said. One big problem, however, remains in that poorer countries still have less access to vaccine doses in the first place. Kenya got a million doses and distributed them across the whole country, but in Nairobi people are getting turned away because they don t have enough, she said, pointing out that the country was originally supposed to have received some 1.5 million doses by now. The country has so far failed to vaccinate high-priority groups, such as health officials and teachers. Distributing the vaccine is another issue, said Kyobutungi. She said Kenya tried to fairly distribute vaccine doses to all its regions, but failed because urban centers have far better infrastructural and organizational networks than rural regions. This meant that not all doses available in rural areas were used, while demand in the capital, Nairobi, far outweighed supply.
