Amid the rising cases of COVID-19, the Lagos Ministry of Health has announced that the state is out of the Moderna vaccine.
This was stated in a terse post on the official Instagram page of the Lagos State Commissioner for Health, Akin Abayomi, titled ‘Non-availability of #COVID19 Moderna Vaccine in Lagos State – Appeal for Restraint by Lagos State Ministry of Health’.
The statement reads: “Lagos State Ministry of Health (LSMOH) and Lagos State Primary Healthcare Board (LSPHCB) sincerely appeal for understanding over the non-availability of Moderna vaccine in all vaccination centres in Lagos at the moment.
“It should be noted that the supply of vaccines to all states of the Federation is done exclusively by the National Primary Health Care Development Agency (NPHCDA).
“Like other states of the federation, Lagos State relies on NPHCDA for the supply of all COVID-19 vaccines
“At the moment, Lagos State is yet to be supplied with another batch of Moderna vaccine since the last stock was exhausted. The situation is, however, temporary.
