Turkey began final Phase III trials of an experimental Chinese
Coronavirus vaccine on Wednesday, the health minister said.
"The first administration of the Sinovac vaccine was started with three healthcare workers at Hacettepe University, who volunteered to take part in the trials," Fahrettin Koca told a news conference.
The vaccine will be administered to between 1,200 and 1,300 health workers over 10 days and a second dose will be given 14 days after the first, broadcasters
CNN Turk and Haberturk reported earlier.
