TOKYO: Japan is making an aggressive move to grab enough coronavirus vaccine to inoculate its population four times over, a push the government hopes will instil confidence that it can host a delayed summer Olympics next year.
The various companies"will probably be able to produce a vaccine between the end of this year and next March," Suga told Reuters in an interview this week."There are a lot of considerations, but we want to hold the Olympics at all costs." Health ministry and Cabinet Office officials did not respond to queries about whether Japan's drive to secure coronavirus vaccines was connected to the Olympics.
