In the first stages when the vaccine is expected to be scarce, Kenya will receive doses in little portions.
WHO outlined how it would distribute the vaccine to Kenya and all the 156 countries that signed up for Covax.
Covax was created to ensure the “equitable access and allocation of Covid-19 health products” between the world’s richest countries and those in the developing world.
Kenya will receive the Covid-19 vaccine in small portions from 2021 until the country has enough to vaccinate the people at “the highest priority” when the vaccine is available, the World Health Organisation (WHO) has announced.
In a report published on its website on Monday this week, the WHO said that each country, including Kenya, will get doses that vaccinate one in every five people, which is equivalent to 9.4 million people.
