Turkey started mass vaccination for COVID-19 on Jan 14 after the authorities approved the emergency use of the Chinese vaccine.
More than 600,000 health workers in Turkey have received their first doses of COVID-19 shots developed by China's Sinovac during the first two days of the country's vaccination program.
Turkish Health Minister Fahrettin Koca on Jan 13, 2021, received the Sinovac vaccine along with Turkey's advisory science council members, one day before the nationwide vaccination begins.
