 Contrary to reports being pedalled around, the United Kingdom does not have a problem with vaccines being administered in Nigeria. The National Primary Health Care Development Agency disclosed this at a press briefing in Abuja where it gave an update on the vaccination exercise so far. Plus TV Africa Angozika Ohecesi tells us more. It's another opportunity to brief Nigerians on the vaccination effort against COVID-19. The Executive Director of the National Primary Health Care Development Agency, Dr. Faizal Shwaib, begins with the spell and the rumor that the United Kingdom has placed Nigeria on a list of countries whose vaccinations are not recognized. To seize this opportunity to comment on the UK government statement which was released yesterday, Nigeria status has not changed. Nigeria is not among the red-listed countries that need to mandatorily quarantine for 14 days in a supervised UK facility. Nigeria has fully vaccinated less than 3 million people against COVID-19. This represents just 2% of the legible population. 4.4% have received one job, meaning Nigerians do have a long way to go. Dr. Shwaib disclosed its efforts being made to get more people vaccinated. In recent weeks, we have intensified campaigns for the uptake of second dose using multiple media strategies, stakeholders and community engagement, and these have yielded appreciable results. However, more work needs to be collectively done to improve vaccine uptake. Dorothy Ocholy, who is representing the UNICEF country representative, lists some points that the National Primary Healthcare Development Agency should look into and provide solutions. We still need to increase the number of people that have vaccinated daily from the current figure of about 100,000 per day to nearly 300,000 per day if we are to achieve the target that has been set. The World Health Organization country representative Dr. Walther Gazzadi comments Nigeria as it looks forward to the country sharing its example and experience in other African countries. From WHO perspective, we look forward to Nigeria sharing its example and the experience in how to roll out the COVID-19 vaccine to inform other countries. Nigeria will be receiving more than 3 million doses of the Pfizer vaccine in two weeks as the National Primary Healthcare Development Agency urges eligible persons to ensure they get vaccinated.
