Taiwan has completed checks on its first batch of AstraZeneca Plc Covid-19 vaccines and the first shots may start being administered from Monday, Health Minister Chen Shih-chung said.
Taiwan’s first vaccines — 117,000 doses of the AstraZeneca shot — arrived on the island earlier this month, though they have yet to start being administered, Reuters reported.
Chen said the doses, which came from a South Korean factory, had now cleared the last of the checks by Taiwan’s Food and Drug Administration.
