BRASILIA (Reuters) – Brazil’s health ministry said on Thursday that a flight to India to seek two million off-the-shelf doses of Astrazeneca’s coronavirus vaccine has been pushed back a day to Friday.
In a statement, the ministry cited “international logistical issues,” adding that the flight will take off from the northeastern city of Recife at 11:00 pm local time on Friday and that its return date is still to be decided.
