COVID-19: Pakistan receives 1m doses of Sputnik vaccine

Pakistan has received one million doses of Sputnik vaccine, the Russian-made single dose vaccine that is acceptable in Pakistan and most of the South and the South-East Asian nations.

The first consignment of one million doses of Russian-made Sputnik V coronavirus vaccine arrived in Islamabad on Wednesday, the health ministry said.

Sputnik V is among the seven vaccines approved by the federal government for emergency use.
