Mexico has received a shipment of 870,000 doses of AstraZeneca’s Covid-19 vaccine from India, the government said, as the country prepares to prioritise older adults in the next phase of its vaccination campaign.
Mexico is also expecting shipments of Pfizer’s vaccine to resume, with 494,000 doses due to arrive on Tuesday, Foreign Minister Marcelo Ebrard told a news conference, according to Reuters.
Today’s shipment amounts to about 42 per cent of the two million doses of the AstraZeneca and Oxford University vaccine the country plans to import from India, in addition to packaging it locally, the government said.
