Mexico OK with getting less Pfizer vaccine

MEXICO CITY (AP) — President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador said Sunday that his government has agreed with a U.N. proposal to delay shipments of the Pfizer coronavirus vaccine to countries like Mexico that had exiting purchase agreements, in order to get more doses to poorer countries quicker. Lopez Obrador said the delayed shipments would be made up later. “Anyway, that won’t change our plan, because we are already seeking out other vaccines,”‘ Lopez Obrador said, referring to the AstraZeneca vaccine as well as the Chinese CanSino and Russian Sputnik V vaccines.
