–Several European countries have temporarily suspended immunizations with AstraZeneca due to fears of side effects, and it was later declared safe by the European Medicines Agency. So far, Venezuela has approved the use of the Russian vaccine “Sputnik V” and that of the Chinese company “Sinopharm”, informs BNR.
On March 15, authorities in the Latin American country informed the Pan American Health Organization that they would not take the British drug, even though they had ordered between 1,400,000 and 2,400,000 doses of Covax. However, the vaccines have not yet been delivered, as the country has serious obligations to the World Health Organization.
