Venezuela received more Chinese vaccines than reported, says NGO Diario Expreso

An NGO from Venezuela assured that the Caribbean country would be receiving more vaccines from China against covid-19, however, the Government does not make it public.

“Chinese vaccines are coming, only the Ministry is not announcing them. So there are vaccines (we do not know how many) but they skipped the plan and it is done in a disorganized, disorderly and politicized way with the Homeland page and the card. The solution is to expand vaccine positions », he told the organization called Médicos Unidos through his account Twitter.

Last Saturday, Delcy Rodriguez indicated that in the remainder of August, September and October the country will go through a process of “expansion” of vaccination against covid-19, for the return to classes face-to-face.

“The remainder of August, September and October we are going to a process of intensification of the vaccination process, we have to get vaccinated, get to immunize 70% of the population, which is the goal. We have the vaccines »Rodríguez said in January of this year in Caracas, Venezuela.

However, one person assured that the second dose is still awaiting, to which the official replied that “soon” Russia will send the second dose of the Sputnik V, without giving more details.

In this way, the NGO assured that they are unaware of a vaccination plan in the country, as well as the possible arrival of the second dose of the Russian vaccine or the others.

On the other hand, the opposition of the Nicolas Maduro, such as the Voluntad Popular party, led by Leopoldo LopezHe pointed out that only 6% of the Venezuelan population has been vaccinated.

They also indicated that the first week of August, «Barely between 500,000 and 600,000 Venezuelans received just one dose of Sputnik V and they are waiting for the second to be fully vaccinated, representing a great risk before the arrival of the delta variant ».

In that sense, Venezuela is still waiting for the arrival of more than 6 million vaccines against covid-19 under the mechanism of Covax Facility, which is responsible for the World Health Organization, as the Venezuelan dictator recently indicated.
