ISLAMABAD, Feb 18 (Reuters) - Pakistan is to receive 2.8
million doses of AstraZeneca's coronavirus vaccine on March 2 as
the first batch of a donation from the international COVAX
programme, Health Minister Faisal Sultan said on Thursday.
The consignment will be used in a public vaccination
programme for people aged over 60, he told a news conference.
The country this month started the vaccination drive with
500,000 doses of Sinopharm's vaccine donated by long-time ally
China.
