The Egyptian Drug Authority announced signing a deal with AstraZeneca to supply the country with the Oxford University's vaccine for COVID-19 without disclosing the number of doses or the delivery date.
Health and Protective Affairs Consultant to the President Mohamed Awad Tag el-Din stated in a phone-in earlier in June that Egypt was expected to receive a share of the COVID-19 vaccine developed by Oxford University.
After trial on 50 Egyptian COVID-19 patients since April, Egypt is set to receive more doses of Avigan that accelerates recovery and exerts efforts to get a share of the vaccine developed by Oxford University.
