Edo Government on Thursday said it had recorded about 33 deaths so far with unvaccinated persons since the third wave of the COVID-19 pandemic in the state.

Head of the state COVID-19 case management, Ebomwonyi Osagie, made this known during a news briefing in Benin.

Osagie noted that the state had so far vaccinated about 93,000 persons representing two per cent of the population, adding that the target was to vaccine at least 10 per cent by the end of 2021. He decried the non-adherence among residents to the COVID-19 protocols and guidelines, saying the recalcitrance had further compounded the COVID-19 challenge in the state.

Osagie urged residents to leverage on the availability of the vaccines in the state to get vaccinated against the virus in order to stay alive.
