COVID vaccinations averaging 5,000 persons daily – Anthony

An average of 5,000 persons are being vaccinated daily as Guyana’s COVID-19 inoculation process continues apace.

This was disclosed by Minister of Health, Dr Frank Anthony during his COVID-19 update yesterday, where he noted that on some days there is a good turnout of persons to receive the vaccine while it is not the same on others.

“We do on average about 5,000 to 6,000 a day. Some days are better than others and we have noticed that on the weekends we don’t get as much turnout as we expected,” he said while adding that they however continue to keep the vaccination centres open and call on persons to come out and receive their vaccines.
