The government of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa on Wednesday announced to vaccinate 20,000 doctors and paramedics in the first phase of coronavirus vaccination.

The initiative has been taken in a bid to contain the spread of corona virus as the death ratio has reportedly increased across the country.

Moreover, it will be followed by providing vaccine facilitation to the health department workers in Peshawar, Bannu, Swat and Abbottabad.

Along with the vaccination, the government will provide other 290 facilities to the health department staff as well.
