Reuters exclusively reports up to 1 million COVID vaccines expired in Nigeria last month

Reuters exclusively reported that up to one million COVID-19 vaccines are estimated to have expired in Nigeria in November without being used, one of the biggest single losses of doses and showing the difficulty African nations have getting shots in arms. Governments on the continent of over one billion people have been pushing for more vaccine deliveries as inoculation rates lag richer regions, increasing the risk of new variants such as the Omicron coronavirus now spreading across South Africa.
