Zimbabwe received 2 million Covid-19 vaccines from China's Sinovac on Thursday, its single largest shipment that it hopes will boost a vaccination campaign that had been slowed by shortages while infections and deaths rise.

The southern African nation imposed a dusk to dawn curfew and curbed the movement of people on June 29 in a bid to contain infections, which have since increased by 24% to 60,227.

Thursday's delivery took Zimbabwe's total number of vaccines from purchases and donations to 4.2 million, after another consignment of 500,000 doses arrived from China last week.John Mangwiro, deputy minister of health, said the vaccines that arrived last week had already been used. "The arrival of this 2 million will see the consumption and the rate of vaccination going into top gear," Mangwiro said at the country's main airport while receiving the vaccines.

Can I get Covid-19 if I have had the vaccine?The ministerial advisory committee on Covid-19 warns that because vaccines do not kick in immediately after they are administered, people can get infected after getting the jab. That is so unscientific it is laughable🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️... Surely these advisors know how vaccines work - All vaccinated people can still get infected, it just means your body should recognize the virus early and be able to fight it... Perhaps this is the MSM version of how it works... Hai watever sharon_trad you are a trader with so much ambitious goals towards his clients, a woman with love for others.
