The minister specified that the vaccine would be produced by Brazil’s Butantan Institute.
`On Thursday, we signed a contract with Butantan Institute to purchase first 46 million doses by April and 54 million doses throughout the year,” the minister said at a news conference.
He assured the citizens that all Sinovac vaccines already in the Butantan Institute would be used for the national immunization programme and distributed on an equitable and proportional basis among all Brazilian states.
