Kyiv • UNN
Ukraine has more than 500 thousand doses of Pfizer's COVID-19 vaccine. The government has submitted an application for free vaccines for 2025, given the country's special status due to the war.
Ukraine has more than 500 thousand doses of COVID-19 vaccine - Pfizer. The government has already formed an application for vaccines for 2025. According to preliminary information, the vaccine will be provided free of charge.
This was reported by Deputy Minister of Health, Chief State Sanitary Doctor Igor Kuzin during a briefing, according to a correspondent of UNN.
As of today, we have more than 500 thousand doses of the vaccine - this is Pfizer's Omicron-specific vaccine, which has been used in Ukraine for almost a year without any other alternatives. It is now available at every vaccination point in the country
He also noted that Ukraine has a certain amount of children's vaccine at the level of large hospitals, in vaccination centers, or at vaccination points to vaccinate children from 6 years old. Kuzin said that Ukraine could receive quite significant amounts of vaccine free of charge until the end of 2024 at the country's request. If necessary, the government may request and order additional quantities of the vaccine.
"The government has already prepared an application for vaccines for 2025. According to preliminary information, such a vaccine will also be provided to Ukraine free of charge, given that Ukraine falls into a special category of countries that cannot yet compensate for the cost of such a vaccine within its state budget due to the ongoing war," Kuzin said.

Kuzin reported that at least 10 different subtypes of coronavirus are circulating in Ukraine, including the FLiRT strain, which was registered for the first time in the world in March this year. The number of cases has increased in the country over the past month, but there are no predictions of an epidemic.
Kuzin also reported that the new sub-variant of the Omicron coronavirus, FLiRT, does not cause severe disease in people who have been vaccinated or have been revaccinated when indicated.
