Ministry denies report it has dengue vaccines

The Ministry of Health yesterday denied a Village Voice report that it had procured dengue vaccines and was keeping this a secret.

“We noticed an article published in the Village Voice on August 24, 2023 in which it asserts that the Ministry of Health (MOH) has procured dengue vaccines and keeping it a secret. It makes no sense that the MOH would secure vaccines and keep it a secret. This is simply a reckless report designed more to create confusion and to mislead the public”, the ministry said in a press release.
