“What remains the challenge is to provide a significant amount of vaccines and I hope we have good news very soon. The contacts are continuous and it looks good, but let’s not talk ahead of time,” said Rama.
For her part the Minister of Health, Ogerta Manastirliu noted that “today we continued with the vaccination of the +80 age group among whom are the first +90 year old. While we continue to vaccinate medical staff our plan is to reach the target of over 13,000 vaccinations in total within today. Vaccination has already started in Korça, Vlora, Shkodra, Elbasan, and other centers.”

“We are preparing for the new vaccinators, ie for the nurses who will perform the training in the National Arena, who will then be distributed throughout the country.
