“A number of countries got all vaccines which are in the list of the WHO,” Hande Harmanci, Head of the World Health Organization Office in Azerbaijan told APA.

She noted that this list is changing: “Our hope is all countries to get vaccines included in the list of the WHO. Moreover, there are so few people in the world today who can get vaccinated that it is not right to make vaccination a basic requirement. Because it may lead to discrimination among countries in the future. Of course, each country has its own internal policy. They adopt decisions according to the epidemiological situation in the country.”
