Description
Nigeria destroys more than 1 million expired Covid-19 vaccines. The Executive Director of the National Primary Health Care Development Agency (NPHCDA)asserts that when the vaccines were offered to the country 'we knew that they have a short shelf-life but we were living in an environment where the supply of Covid-19 vaccines was very scarce'. He blames 'vaccine nationalism' in developed countries for hoarding vaccines until they 'were about to expire' before donating them. This comes as cases in the country have risen by around 500% in the past two weeks. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
