“The federal government has procured and will continue to procure COVID vaccine for all Pakistanis,” said Special Assistant to the Prime Minister on National Health Services, Regulations & Coordination Dr Faisal Sultan.

“At the same time, there is no "NOC" requirement (or any NOC pending) or bar for any provincial government to procure any registered vaccine if they are able to,” he stated while adding that any facilitation needed will be provided to the provinces.
