This is not usually part of our usual coverage but we thought we thought it prudent to notify you. The AVATT Advance Procurement Commitment (APC) through the Africa Centres for Disease Control has announced the COVID-19 vaccine allocations for all African countries. The allocation of the vaccines will be done in proportion to the population of each country. Zimbabwe is getting 3 010 283 COVID-19 vaccine doses (of the available 270 000 000 doses) at a procurement cost of US$20 486 645.
The vaccines will be supplied by Pfizer, AstraZeneca through the Serum Institute of India, and Johnson & Johnson.
Allocations for the rest of the continent are as follows:

There’s also Sinovac. Maybe it’s separate from this allocation.
