It is expected that the flights of Aerolíneas Argentinas to Beijing will depart from july 7 at the rate of one per day, reported the NA agency. The first of these would come out this Friday. Those planes would bring 800,000 doses each to set up the trips in the most “logical” way.

The contract with the Chinese laboratory stipulates deliveries of “8 million doses in July, 8 million in August and 8 million in September.” In this way, the doses that will arrive in the coming months will be added to the 6 million Sinopharm vaccines that Argentina received in recent months, thus reaching a total of 30 million doses from the Chinese laboratory.
