They just got their first 24,000 doses of vaccine 3 FUCKING days ago on April 7th.

10 people have died there of covid since it started last year.

Population of around 100k, so they are going to let 75k people possibly die on an island with a volcano rather than rescue them.

WHAT THE FUCK, PURE EVIL

St. Vincent and the Grenadines receives the first COVID-19 vaccines through the COVAX Facility

7 Apr 2021

Bridgetown, Barbados, 7 April 2021 (PAHO / WHO) - St. Vincent and the Grenadines today received 24,000 doses of COVID-19 vaccines through the COVAX Facility, a global effort between the Coalition for Epidemic Preparedness Innovations (CEPI), Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance Gavi, UNICEF, the Pan American Health Organization (PAHO) and the World Health Organization (WHO).

The arrival marks a historic step toward ensuring the equitable distribution of COVID-19 vaccines worldwide, in the largest vaccine procurement and supply operation in history. This delivery is part of the first phase of deliveries for St. Vincent and the Grenadines, and more vaccines are expected to arrive successively during 2021. According to the first round of COVAX allocations, St. Vincent and the Grenadines is expected to continue receiving doses through May until it reaches 45,600, the amount specified by COVAX.

PAHO's Revolving Fund, which is responsible for the procurement of COVID-19 vaccines for the countries of the Americas under the COVAX Mechanism, sent 24,000 doses of the AstraZeneca / Oxford vaccine, manufactured by SK Bioscience of South Korea. The vaccines arrived today at the Argyle International Airport.

Seeing this arrival is very reassuring and it means that more people will be able to be protected from COVID-19, "said Dr. Yitades Gebre, PAHO / WHO Representative for Barbados and the Eastern Caribbean Countries." We will continue to work with the country to support vaccination along with the entire package of known public health and social measures that we know can help stop the spread of COVID-19, protect health services, and save lives. "

The arrival of these first vaccines will serve to protect priority groups and those most at risk, such as health workers and older adults. St. Vincent and the Grenadines is one of ten countries in the Americas that are receiving vaccines at no cost through the COVAX Mechanism's Advance market commitment (AMC).

The Hon. St. Clair Prince, Minister of Health, Wellness and the Environment said, “We believe as do most experts in the field that vaccination is the best hope of ending the COVID-19 pandemic. As a result, government has always been trying to procure vaccines from all sources possible to ensure that Vincentians have access to this very vital item. ”

Since the first case of COVID-19 was reported in March 2020, the country has recorded 1,766 cases and 10 deaths as a result of the SARS-CoV-2 virus.
