By Aaron Humes: Dr. Natalia Beer of the Ministry of Health and Wellness reports that the Ministry of Health and Wellness is still looking for a country to donate expiring vaccine doses currently stored here.

For now, it is holding on to these doses as Belize’s own vaccination campaign continues.

As for vaccination of children five to 12-years-old, the Caribbean Community (CARICOM) is slated to meet in January with potential sources of vaccines specifically for 5 to 12-year-olds, Dr. Beer reported.

We’ll have more on these stories later on.
