Saudi Arabia is still in talks with Russia and China to source coronavirus
vaccines after the kingdom rolled out a program to administer the Pfizer
Inc.-BioNTech SE shot.




“The process is ongoing and data is being shared, but we have not yet reached a
decision,” Assistant Deputy Minister of Health Abdullah Assiri said in an
interview with Bloomberg TV. “We don’t expect other vaccines to reach Saudi
Arabia maybe until the first quarter of 2021.”




Saudi Arabia, which approved the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine earlier this month, on
Monday halted international flights and closed its borders for one week over
fears about the fast-spreading new strain of the coronavirus.





Abdullah Assiri, assistant-deputy minister of health of Saudi Arabia, discusses
the government’s efforts to fight the coronavirus pandemic, and its plan for
vaccinations. The kingdom halted international flights and closed its borders
for one week over fears about the fast-spreading new strain of the coronavirus.

Assiri also said:




 * Saudi Arabia received three shipments of Pfizer vaccines and expects to get
   additional ones before the end of the year
 * Saudi Arabia aims to vaccinate all of its residents for free
