Armenia has placed a preliminary order of 600,000 doses of Covid-19 vaccine for 300,000 people, equal to the 10% of the population, Health Minister Arsen Torosyan told a government sitting today.
The order has been made through an international procurement platform, and the possible delivery of the finally approved product is expected in mid-spring.
According to the Minister, the calculations are conservative, because it’s unclear what the demand will be at the time of delivery. The quantity will be increased if needed.
