“After taking this problem with relevant stakeholders, and learning it, the order will be issued soon,” he said.
Meanwhile, an official said the ministry had prepared a fact sheet to guide the frontline workers on pregnant women counseling about the value and precautions of vaccines so that they could make a decision.
