20 thousand doses of the vaccine delivered to MINSA

Today, December 28 of the current year, the Latin American Institute of Biotechnology MECHNIKOV made a contribution to the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Nicaragua (MINSA) in the amount of 20 thousand doses of the fractionated inactivated influenza vaccine.

The delivery to MINSA of Nicaragua made by the MECHNIKOV Institute is also a contribution in the fight against COVID-19 since the wide application of influenza vaccines is considered important due to the early diagnosis of coronavirus infection and the innate immunity that it supposedly produces.

The MECHNIKOV Institute is the only plant in Central America that produces this type of vaccine, thus guaranteeing its distribution in both Central American countries and other Latin American countries. Located in the Republic of Nicaragua, the Institute is capable of supplying a large number of countries with vaccines.
