The Ministry of Health yesterday began vaccinating persons sixty years and older with both the Oxford- AstraZeneca Covishield, and Chinese Sinopharm vaccines at the Vreed-en-Hoop Health Centre, West Bank Demerara, the Enmore Polyclinic on the East Coast of Demerara and other centres across the country.

The three-day immunisation exercise became possible with the recent donation of the vaccines to Guyana.

Stabroek News during a visit to the Enmore location was informed of the protocols when persons arrived to be vaccinated.
