Hungary is set to take delivery of the next shipment of the Chinese Covid-19 vaccine in mid-March, the government coronavirus information portal said on Tuesday.

A large consignment of Russia’s Sputnik V is soon to arrive in the country, it said.

Hungary has so far ordered 31 million doses of Covid vaccines, 7 percent of which has already been received.

Fully 24 million vaccines come from EU purchases and 5 percent of them including the Pfizer/BioNTech, Moderna and AstraZeneca vaccines has been delivered.

The latest, 11th, shipment of Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine — almost 115,000 doses — arrived in Hungary on Tuesday, bringing the total Pfizer jabs delivered to Hungary to over 850,000.
 
The first shipment of the Comirnaty vaccine, the first to receive conditional approval in the European Union, arrived in Hungary on Dec. 26. New batches have arrived every week since, the manufacturer’s Hungarian arm said in a statement.

Of Sputnik V and Sinopharm, 13 percent has been delivered.

It said that the Janssen and CureVac vaccines are expected to receive a licence by the European Medicines Agency (EMA) in mid-March. Hungary has ordered 4.36 million doses of the single-dose vaccine, Janssen, which is enough to inoculate the same number of people, the portal said.
