The Ministry of Health will today August 9 resume another phase of COVID-19 vaccination across country. In June, the country had run out of vaccines but it eventually received a batch of 175,200 AstraZeneca vaccine doses, which were quickly given to those who had already received the first jab.

Last week, the Ministry of Health received about 586,080 additional COVID-19 vaccines from Norway and China to support the vaccination exercise.

After a week-long exercise of dispatching the vaccines to all the designated centres across the country, COVID-19 Vaccination exercise resumes today. The exercise will begin in Kampala and according to the ministry; priority will be given to those that have reached 12 weeks after receiving the first jab and the Health workers.
