A total of 28,800 doses of Johnson and Johnson Covid-19 vaccines are expected to arrive in Vanuatu, today.

Mr Bule said the vaccines will be used in rural areas such as Tafea outer islands, Shepherd islands and West-coast Santo.

“The single-shot vaccine is ideal for hard-to- reach and more remote communities where people have to walk long distances to the vaccination sites and recalling people for a second dose might be a challenge.”

Mr Bule and representatives of the World Health Organisation and UNICEF will be at Port Vila Airport to receive the vaccines.
