China has decided to provide a coronavirus vaccine to Nepal but it is still unclear how long it will take for the consignment to arrive, as the product is yet to get emergency use approval in the country.
The Chinese Embassy in Kathmandu announced on Sunday that the Chinese government has decided to provide 300,000 doses of the vaccine produced by Sinopharm in grant as requested by Nepal.
“For the vaccine to be brought in Nepal, it must get emergency use approval from the concerned agency,” Dr Shyam Raj Upreti, coordinator of the COVID-19 vaccine advisory committee, told the Post. “Even to accept the jabs in grant or gift, it must get emergency use approval.”
