Manuel Nso Obiang Ada, the he executive secretary and coordinator for the fight against endemic diseases in the Central African Sub Region, L’OCEAC revealed the information during a video conference meeting of public health ministers yesterday.
“We think in six months or by the end of year we will have at least 20% of the vaccines we need for the subregion”.
All the other ministers of public health, however approved the idea.
The WHO Regional Representative , Dr. Maria Rebollo, said the experts have to ensure that the vaccine is accessible to all persons within the subregion, especially those vulnerable to COVID-19.
Many Africans will receive the news with mix-feelings, especially when there was a lot of controversy as whether the virus is real or not.
