Romania will sell one million Pfizer vaccine doses to Denmark as the Government expects it won’t be able to use them due to the low vaccination rates. Prime minister Florin Citu said Romania would sell the unused vaccines at acquisition price or donate them, according to Romania-Insider.com.
He also stated that, despite failing to reach its vaccination target, Romania has managed to “eliminate the pandemic,” according to G4media.ro.
According to local Profit.ro, the Government estimates that not even half of the local population will be vaccinated against COVID-19 by the end of this year.
The initial target set by the Romanian authorities at the end of 2020, when the vaccination campaign started, was to have 70% of Romanians vaccinated by this autumn.
Then, prime minister Florin Citu announced that his cabinet would start relaxing the restrictions if five million people got vaccinated by June 1. However, the Government moved on with the relaxation measures despite the vaccination target not being met.
