The president of Pfizer in Brazil, Carlos Murillo, said vaccination could start almost immediately after an emergency registration by Anvisa (National Health Surveillance Agency).
Murillo believes that, depending on the progress of conversations and analysis by Brazilian agencies, the vaccination process could start in January.
"We are working to start vaccinating almost immediately after receiving emergency use approval from Anvisa," he said, citing that, in the case of the United Kingdom, health authorization was given last week, and vaccination started on Tuesday ( 8).
