Several of Guyana’s Members of Parliament, on Wednesday, turned up at Parliament Buildings to receive their COVID-19 vaccines.
Speaker of the National Assembly, Manzoor Nadir expressed gratitude to the Guyanese Government for securing the vaccines for the nation.
“It is important that we tell our people that vaccination is something highly recommended, and, as Speaker, I want to be among the first also to be vaccinated. I feel that it’s more than necessary. It is not sufficient to talk the talk, but we need to do the walk. Today I am pleased to see quite a few Members of Parliament here,” he said.
The Speaker said the Government would soon be able to provide the vaccine to all Guyanese.
Meanwhile, Minister of Labour, Joseph Hamilton said vaccination will no doubt change the course of the pandemic in Guyana, and across the globe.
