Health News of Friday, 20 August 2021Source: happyghana.comThe programmes manager of Ghana’s expanded program on Immunization, Dr Kwame Amponsa-Achiano, has expressed optimism that twenty million Ghanaians can still be vaccinated to achieve the herd immunity desired. His confidence stems from the fact that the country is still expecting more vaccines from different sources to augment the vaccination process in the country. Apart from that, we are getting 1.2 million Moderna vaccines. Ghana has taken delivery of 177,600 doses of the Johnson & Johnson vaccines to vaccinate people who are yet to receive a COVID-19 jab. The vaccine is the first batch of the Africa Union’s African Vaccine Acquisition Trust (AVAT) initiative delivered to Ghana.
