COVAX recently delivered five million vaccine doses to Africa, but 15 million doses have been thrown away in the United States since March, according to the head of the WHO in Africa.
The incidence of the side effect remains extremely rare with only 833 cases being reported worldwide from about 592 million administered doses of the AstraZeneca vaccine.
Gov. Hogan said pharmacies and other providers across the state can administer Covid-19 booster shots to those 65 or older without a prescription or doctor’s order.
