Turkey will offer an additional Pfizer-BioNTech dose to travelers inoculated with Sinovac's coronavirus vaccine, the Turkish Health Ministry said on Monday, in an effort to facilitate travel to countries that don’t recognize the Chinese-made jab.
Turkey, with a population of 83 million, has fully vaccinated more than half of Turkish citizens over 18 years of age. The country launched its inoculation campaign in January, first using Sinovac's Coronavac vaccine and later the US-made Pfizer-BioNTech shot.
