Two days ago, the NCOC chief announced opening walk-in vaccinations for citizens aged 30 years and above from Saturday, as well as for teachers aged 18 and above. He urged all 30+ people who have registered for the vaccination to visit any vaccination centre and get inoculated. Locally made vaccine Earlier on May 24, in a major achievement in its fight against the novel coronavirus, Pakistan announced that it has developed a homemade vaccine — PakVac — with the help of China's Cansino Bio after rigorous quality control checks. The step is aimed at significantly reducing Pakistan’s dependence on other countries for the Covid-19 vaccine. The country started its vaccination campaign in February with doses donated by the government of China. The campaign started with frontline healthcare workers and then inoculation of senior citizens in the second phase. "Congratulations to the NIH (National Institute of Health) Pak team and its leadership for successful fill/finish (from concentrate) of the Cansino vaccine with the help of Cansino Bio Inc. China," Special Assistant to Prime Minister on Health Dr Faisal Sultan wrote on his official Twitter handle. He said that the vaccine has passed rigorous internal quality assurance testing, considering it an important step to help the vaccine supply line. An official from the Ministry of National Health Services has said that due to the agreement on technology transfer, the NIH would be able to produce three million doses per month.
