MADRID (Reuters) – Spain will begin a comprehensive coronavirus vaccination programme in January, Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez said on Sunday.
He said Spain and Germany were the first European Union countries to have a complete vaccination plan in place.
“The campaign will start in January and have 13,000 vaccination points,” Sanchez told a news conference after a two-day online summit of G20 leaders.
He said Spain would recruit more health professionals to strengthen its health system.
“We have a tough few months ahead of us but the road map has been drawn up,” Sanchez said.
