Johnson & Johnson announced on Monday that it will begin distributing its single-dose COVID-19 vaccine to Europe on April 19. The AFP agency informed about it.
The European Union has approved covid vaccines from Pfizer / BioNTech, Moderna, AstraZeneca and more recently from J&J.
How vaccination works and where the state fails, Tomáš Szalay told HNtelevízia:
This is the first single-dose vaccine against covid, the others are given in two doses. Clinical trials have confirmed that it is effective in preventing COVID-19 in people from 18 years of age.
The EU has ordered 200 million doses from J&J, AFP reminded.
EU Internal Market Commissioner Thierry Breton said on Friday that it would deliver 55 million doses of Johnson & Johnson vaccines to EU member states in the second quarter, with shipments coming in April. He said the EU would receive another 120 million doses of the single-dose vaccine from July to September.
