The Executive Director of the National Primary Health Care Development Agency, Dr. Faisal Shuaib says Nigerians would soon be able to choose from a variety of COVID-19 vaccines.
The executive director disclosed this last week in a video shared on the official Facebook page of the agency.
Speaking, Shuaib said, “There will be additional opportunities for people to be given AstraZeneca vaccine if that is what their preference is.
“So, we now have a large menu that Nigerians can choose from whether it is AstraZeneca, Moderna, Pfizer, and then the J&J vaccines that would be coming subsequently.”
