SIR MOLWYN COMMENTS ON VACCINE EFFICACY

Report filed by Jessica Russell – News Reporter.

Health Minister Sir Molwyn Joseph says since Antigua and Barbuda rolled out its vaccination campaign in February, the country has been weathering the COVID- 19 storm better.
His comments come in light of the revelation from the United States’ Centers for Disease Control and Prevention that over 99 percent of recent COVID- 19- related deaths are among the unvaccinated.

However, Minister Joseph says people’s actions can be problematic.

Antigua and Barbuda, like other countries around the world, has had to contend with vaccine hesitancy.
Prime Minister Hon. Gaston Browne has indicated this is emerging as one of the most significant challenges of our times.
