By Zoila Palma: Today, the Ministry of Health and Wellness announced that the Sinopharm COVID-19 vaccine will be available to persons in phases 1, 2 and 3 starting today.

The World Health Organization (WHO) approved the Sinopharm vaccines for emergency use on May 7, 2021.

The vaccine is produced by the Beijing Bio-Institute of Biological Products Co Ltd (BIBP), a subsidy of China National Biotec Group.

Last month, the Government of Belize received a donation of 10,000 doses of the Sinopharm COVID-19 vaccine from the United Arab Emirates (UAE).

The Ministry says that it is now prepared to offer that option as one of the vaccines against COVID-19. They will be available at all the vaccination sites countrywide.
