EU Likely To Vaccinate 70 Percent Adult Population By End Of July: Von Der Leyen
BRUSSELS, Apr 24 (NNN-AGENCIES) – European Commission President, Ursula von der Leyen, yesterday brought forward the expected date for the European Union (EU) to vaccinate its 70 percent of adult population by nearly two months.
Speaking after visiting Pfizer’s vaccine plant in Puurs, Belgium, where the main vaccine used so far in the EU has been produced, von der Leyen said, the goal could be achieved by the end of July, instead of late Sept, as had been previously predicted.
