Tokayev stressed the importance of expanding the list of COVID-19 vaccines used in the country taking into account the emergence of new strains as well as prices and quality of vaccines.

He instructed to ensure access of Kazakhstan’s people to Pfizer vaccine in the short term.

The country failed to receive 2 million Pfizer vaccine doses in May due to the company’s new rules.
