According to the Minister of Health, Ekaterine Tikaradze, there are no questions about the quality or reliability of AstraZeneca imported to Georgia. Tikaradze responded to the reports about the suspension of the AstraZeneca vaccination in some countries.

According to Tikaradze, if the World Health Organization decides to stop the AstraZeneca vaccination in the world, it will be stopped in Georgia as well.

"As for the information spread about AstraZeneca, we had communication in this regard, first of all, with the World Health Organization, as well as with medical institutions and representatives of other countries. It is important to note that vaccines have serial numbers, there are no questions about the serial number entering Georgia, but if the World Health Organization decides that AstraZeneca vaccination should be stopped in the world in general, it will be stopped in Georgia as well. At this stage, there is no question about the quality, reliability or harm of this vaccine," Tikaradze said.
