Medical workers pack a thermal bag with AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine marketed under the name CoviShield to deliver it to the other hospital in the mining town of Selydove, 700 kilometers (420 miles) east of Kyiv, eastern Ukraine, Thursday, March 4, 2021. Ukraine received its first shipment of vaccine 500,000 AstraZeneca doses in late February. Yet, only about 19,000 people have been vaccinated since then.
