This move, using the Pfizer vaccine, will realize Quang Ninh’s goal to fully vaccinate everyone over 12 to reach herd immunity in November.

95% of local children aged 12-17 are eligible to get two shots. 3,600 medical workers in Quang Ninh province have been trained to administer inoculations at hospitals, health care centers, and communal health clinics.
