Vice President Bharrat Jagdeo on Thursday said that all adult migrants living in Guyana will be vaccinated for COVID-19 in order for herd immunity to be achieved.
The government hopes to vaccinate 80% of the adult population by the end of 2021 so as to achieve herd immunity and exit the pandemic.
Jagdeo stated that migrants in Guyana are part of that percentage because they are living here and if they are not vaccinated they can be carriers of the virus.
