Antigua To Gift 5,000 Vaccines To Grenada

The donation will be taken from a shipment of 40,000 vials – a gift from the Government of India – which is expected on island this Sunday, February 28. according to Minister of Information Melford Nicholas.

Antigua and Barbuda received a gift of the same number of doses, about two weeks ago, from the Government of Dominica.
