MEXICO CITY (Reuters) – Mexico Deputy Health Minister Hugo Lopez-Gatell said on Tuesday that emergency use of Russia’s Sputnik V COVID-19 vaccine should be authorized within days, after a favorable recommendation by a committee within Mexico’s health regulator.
The exact arrival of the first shipments of Sputnik V to Mexico had not been confirmed, Lopez-Gatell said, though officials said earlier in the day that 200,000 doses could arrive next week.
