A key component in the national response to the pandemic is the roll out of a strategic vaccination program. On Wednesday Feb 17, the Ministry of Health will begin that program with front line workers and the most vulnerable. Three thousand doses of the AstraZeneca vaccine arrived on island last week. A contribution from the Governments of Barbados and Dominica. Recognizing the urgent need to commence COVID-19 vaccination campaigns in the Eastern Caribbean, leaders continue to stand in solidarity during the pandemic by sharing the first vaccine doses that arrive in the region.
