Mentioning that it appeared Pakistan would be the last country to vaccinate its people in the world, Sindh Health Minister Dr Azra Pechuho on Saturday sought the federal government’s permission to directly negotiate with foreign governments and private companies for the procurement of the Covid-19 vaccine.
“Not only the United States, United Kingdom and Turkey but even India and Sub-Saharan African countries have started vaccinating their people against Covid-19 but the response of the federal government regarding acquiring vaccines for the people is very slow and disappointing. We want the federal government to allow us to negotiate with foreign countries and the private companies to purchase vaccine directly for the people of Sindh,” Dr Azra Pechuho told a news conference in Karachi.
