Brazil's Health Minister Marcelo Queiroga has said the country has already acquired, or is in advanced talks to secure, around 350 million Covid vaccine doses for 2022, reports Reuters.

Queiroga said that although Sinovac's Coronavac vaccine was not currently part of plans for the national campaign next year, it could be incorporated if it receives full approval from Brazil's health regulator.
