CHITWAN: Minister for Women, Children, and Senior Citizens, Uma Regmi has said arrangements would be made for administering vaccines against COVID-19 to children at the earliest.

Talking to journalists here today, she said the government was at work regarding making arrangements for administering vaccines to children above five years.

“Trial of the vaccine is being carried out abroad. The Pfizer and Moderna vaccines will be brought to Nepal as well after the trials are successful,” the Minister said, adding that the government will bring the vaccines as soon as possible.

Stating that all citizens should be aware to prevent the spread of coronavirus infection further, Minister Regmi said those who have not taken the vaccines should be extra cautious.
