Her statement comes after the European Commission decided not to order new Covid-19 vaccines from the company beyond June. Some 133,000 people in the country are waiting to get the second dose of AstraZeneca.

Vaccines are as of today available to all adults under the age of 50, although the elderly will have priority. An app allowing people to sign up for vaccines has been released. Some 30,000 people registered in the first two days. According to data, about 25% of the country has gotten its first jab. Some 12% are fully vaccinated. The goal, according to officials, is to fully vaccinate at least 60% of the population in order to achieve herd immunity.
