The country will receive another 900-thousand Pfizer vaccines this weekend.

This was confirmed by the Health Department’s Dr. Nicolas Crisp.

Crisp says the country can expect to receive 5.6-million Pfizer doses next month, while Johnson & Johnson stock will also start arriving in greater numbers.

He says with the vaccine programme scaling up, they hope to target more people who are not on medical aid.
