India puts on hold AstraZeneca vaccine shipment to Canada to focus on domestic immunisation ANI | Updated: Apr 02, 2021 04:59 IST
Toronto [Canada], April 2 (ANI)): Shipments of the coronavirus vaccine from the Serum Institute to Canada have been put on hold for an indefinite period as India has temporarily stopped vaccine exports so as to cater to domestic needs.
According to Sputnik, New Delhi is concentrating on immunization at home due to a spike in domestic cases. We are working with the company on determining when the doses will arrive. We are expecting a delay in the shipment, Joelle Paquette, Director General, of Procurement Support Services Sector, told reporters on Thursday. We do not have the information [about] when we re going to get the doses, she further added.
A misunderstanding is being blamed for the Northern Territory's first shipment of AstraZeneca vaccines never arriving as expected, but health authorities insist the vaccine rollout remains on schedule.
Disneyland Vaccination Site Closes Due to Lack of Supply
Orange County health officials were force to shut a large-scale inoculation hub until at least Feb. 22 due to a delayed shipment of COVID-19 vaccine.
The slowdown was prompted by a massive winter storm that tore through the U.S. Feb. 13 to Feb. 17 and pushed back California’s shipment of the Moderna vaccine.
Without its latest batch of doses, Orange County temporarily closed its Disneyland super point of distribution (POD) because of a lack of supply.
“Without the shipment coming in on Monday, we are essentially out of the Moderna vaccine,” Supervisor Lisa Bartlett told The Epoch Times. “It’s not a significant setback, but every day that we’re not vaccinating residents of Orange County is a definite setback, and it’s a disappointment to all of us.”
VDH: bad weather down south caused delayed delivery of 105,000 Moderna vaccines Winter storm delays vaccine shipments (Source: WAFB) By Riley Wyant | February 19, 2021 at 5:42 PM EST - Updated February 19 at 11:21 PM
RICHMOND, Va. (WVIR) - The Virginia Department of Health says it ran into a roadblock this week with COVID-19 vaccine deliveries. More than 105,000 doses of the Moderna vaccine got held up in transit due to winter weather troubles.
State Vaccine Coordinator Danny Avula says many of the shipments have to pass through states like Texas, Tennessee, and other states with severe weather to get here.
“Those will get pushed into next week and what that means is that we are going to have to see a ton of output next week,” Dr. Avula said. “There are 105,000 doses that get pushed into next week and in addition to that, the new deliveries that come.”
