WHO confirms statement of Azerbaijani scientist on vaccine doses

The World Health Organization has confirmed the statement of the chairman of the German-Azerbaijani Society of Radiology and Neuroradiology, Doctor of Medical Sciences at the University Hospital Cologne, Azerbaijani scientist Nuran Abdullayev on the inadmissibility of using different vaccines to administer the first and second doses.

Report informs that the organization did not recommend choosing different jabs when administering the first and second doses as part of the coronavirus vaccination.

WHO recommended using the vaccine from the same manufacturer for the first and second doses.

A few days ago, Nuran Abdullaev, in the program "Sabaha saxlamayaq" ("Let’s not put off until tomorrow") on the Azerbaijani Public Television, emphasized the inadmissibility of using various vaccines when administering the first and second doses. According to him, the second dose of the vaccine should be from the same manufacturer as the first.

The Azerbaijani scientist stressed that the difference between the first and second doses of the vaccine is unacceptable and absurd. However, Abdullaev noted that using a vaccine from another manufacturer after a year from the first jab will not bring harm.
