The National Primary Health Care Development Agency has commenced online registration of Nigerians interested in taking COVID-19 vaccination.
This is coming ahead of the Tuesday arrival of the first batch of the nation’s vaccines.
The agency disclosed this in a series of messages posted on its Twitter handle on Monday.

“To register for #COVID19 Vaccination, visit our website http://nphcda.gov.ng and click on ‘COVID-19 Vaccination e-registration,” the agency said in a tweet.
The agency, however, made it clear that in the first phase of the vaccination, health care workers, frontline workers, including the military, police, oil and gas workers, Nigerians at the border posts, and strategic leaders among others will be prioritised.
Nigeria is expected to receive almost four million doses of the vaccine on Tuesday courtesy of COVAX, a global initiative backed by the World Health Organisation.
