Laos plans Johnson & Johnson vaccine rollout for Aug 2

VIENTIANE (Vientiane Times/ANN): Health workers plan to begin administering the Johnson & Johnson Covid-19 vaccine across the country on August 2, although vaccinations in some priority areas got under way on July 26, according to the Centre of Information and Education for Health.

These areas were prioritised because of high infection rates and low vaccine uptake, and include Champassak, Savannakhet, Khammuan and Saravan provinces.
