Here is a list of people that, according to the WHO, cannot take the Pfizer vaccine or those that must exercise caution.
What about AstraZeneca?
This is what WHO says about this vaccine:
It is from such guidance that different governments come up with different approaches on who gets a vaccine, and who does not.
An example is the UAE, which is using both Sinopharm and Pfizer. The United Arab Emirates (UAE) Health Ministry will not vaccinate people with severe allergies, pregnant and breastfeeding women, women who plan to get pregnant in the next three months, or those with a history of severe COVID-19 llness.
Similarly, the government of Cambodia issued its own guidance on Sinopharm, which excludes people with chronic illnesses, children, as well as other groups. That country’s guidance has also circulated widely on Zimbabwean social media.
Conclusion
The Sinopharm information in the widely circulated image is based on recommendations issued on most vaccines. Data is still limited on all vaccines, and the WHO and other experts have issued recommendations that governments are using differently.- Zimfact
