Prime Minister Edi Rama announced that mass vaccination of the population against coronavirus is expected to begin in the spring months.
“We will have mass vaccination in March, April, May, June that will break the chain of infections and will make us free from the great burden of anxiety, insecurity, and concern for our beloved ones,” said Rama.
During his speech at an activity related to health, he said that “I expect very soon good news, not from heaven, nor from the impossible charity of the EU, but by persistence and unceasing commitment as a beggar”.
