EU will have enough vaccines for 70% of its citizens by the end of July, Ursula von der Layen assures

"Over the next six months, we will focus on consolidating our success against the pandemic and the acceleration of the economic recovery"

Newsroom July 6 03:00

The President of the European Commission Ursula von der Leyen, expressed her belief that the European Union will have enough doses of vaccine to vaccinate 70% of its adult citizens by the end of the month, while sounding the alarm for the spread of the “Delta” mutation and the reduction of the vaccination rate, due to the “more hesitant part”of the society.
