The Covid-19 vaccine, once procured, will be administered to citizens free of cost, Parliamentary Secretary for National Health Services Regulations and Coordination (NHSRC) Dr Nausheen Hamid said.
According to APP, Dr Hamid, in an interview with a private news chanel, said that a vaccine will be made available "once its efficacy is proved".
A day earlier, Special Assistant to the Prime Minister on Health Dr Faisal Sultan had suggested that the vaccine will be given free of cost.
"The government will fund this [and] take on this responsibility so nobody will be burdened," he had said.
