DUBAI: Dubai has said it was slowing down its rollout of the Pfizer-BioNTech coronavirus vaccine due to a temporary delay in global deliveries.
The emirate began mass inoculations in December after the approval of vaccines by Chinese firm Sinopharm and US drugmaker Pfizer and its German partner BioNTech.
According to health officials, the UAE has already vaccinated over two million of its approximately 10 million population — one of the highest rate in the world.
