A special flight carrying the shipment of 100,000 doses of Pfizer Covid-19 vaccine landed in Pakistan today, whereas syringes for the vaccination will also arrive in the country in the next two days.
Pakistan has received the second shipment of Covid-19 vaccines from COVAX as the first stock of doses of Oxford AstraZeneca vaccine had arrived in the country earlier in the month.
Pfizer-BioNTech Covid-19 vaccine is the sixth vaccine in Pakistan for expediting the process of vaccination to curb the spread of the virus.
The latest stock of Covid-19 vaccine has been transferred to Expanded Programme on Immunisation warehouse before its usage across Pakistan, INP said.
