Sergo Chikhladze: I would investigate why there is a shortage of 5,000 doses of AstraZeneca in the country, this is an unspeakable criminal indifference

This is an unspeakable criminal indifference. How can you have such a deficit? There are many questions, I would investigate this issue, - Sergo Chikhladze, a member of the Strategy Builder, said when commenting on the delay in the arrival of AstraZeneca.

Sergo Chikhladze talked to InterpressNews about the lack of planning skills and competence, noting that he is wondering why there is a shortage of 5,000 doses of AstraZeneca in the country.

"This is indescribable criminal indifference. How can you have such a deficit, how can you not calculate? It's simple. Why is there a shortage of 5 thousand doses? Where did he go? They should have counted these doses. Or why additional doses did not arrive on time? There are many questions, I would investigate where 5 thousand doses were lost, or where was a mistake. Don’t we need to know? I am not saying for criticism, we should make an analysis of where it has gone? It is not about one and two, but 5 thousand doses? This is a criminal indifference, very bad, disgusting management, lack of planning skills and competence,” Chikhladze said.

According to Amiran Gamkrelidze, Head of the National Center for Disease Control, there is a serious delay in the supply of the AstraZeneca vaccine, which is related to many factors.
