There is an increasing demand for the second dose of the Sputnik V vaccine, however, there is a delay in supplies, the Ministry of Health said on Thursday.

It said while both first and second dose of the COVID-19 vaccines are being administered across the country, the second dose of the Sputnik V vaccine is currently unavailable.

“Currently, all sites have in stock, the Sputnik V first dose available for vaccination. Sputnik V second dose can be administered between 4 to 12 weeks. However, we currently have a delay in our supplies,” it explained.

The Health Ministry noted, however, that a further shipment of Sputnik V first dose and second dose vaccines will arrive in Guyana soon.

“The Guyana Government is awaiting shipment information, and we will advise the public as soon as the MOH receive shipment details,” the Health Ministry said.

Additionally, AstraZeneca and SinoPharm are no longer available for the first dose, the Health Ministry disclosed but noted that the second dose is available.

“But everyone who has received their first dose will get their second dose. These doses are currently available,” it stated.

The Government and Opposition have been urging persons living in Guyana to get vaccinated to flatten the curve.
