Greece is scheduled to receive 429,000 doses of the Pfizer-BioNTech coronavirus vaccine by the end of January and 25 million vaccine doses in total until June, once the vaccines developed by other firms are approved by European Union agencies, government spokesperson Stelios Petsas said in an interview with SKAI radio on Tuesday, according to ANA.
He once again stressed that mass inoculation was the only way to build a wall of immunity and “get back control of our lives”, putting an end to the global crisis caused by the pandemic in 2020.
Questioned about the priority vaccination of ministers and state officials, Petsas said this was both for symbolic reasons, with respect to the pinnacle of state and government leaders, and for a selection of government officials considered important for the continuity of the state.
