The Vatican announced Saturday its COVID-19 vaccination campaign will begin “in the next few days” with health workers and the elderly to receive vaccines from the second half of January.<\/p>\n

No mention was made in the short press release about Pope Francis and when the 84-year-old pontiff will receive a vaccine. <\/p>\n

“It is foreseeable that the vaccines could arrive in the State in the second week of January, in a sufficient quantity to cover the needs of the Holy See and the Vatican City State,” it said.<\/p>\n

The Vatican has purchased a low temperature refrigerator for storing the vaccine, with inoculations to start in the second half of January, it said. <\/p>\n

Priority would be given to “health and public safety personnel, the elderly and personnel most frequently in contact with the public.”\n <\/p>\n\n
