Brazil investigates vaccine distribution failures in Minas Gerais

The Brazilian Ministry of Health is investigating vaccine distribution issues in Minas Gerais after reports of shortages in several municipalities. The investigation aims to determine the cause of the shortages. Municipalities in Minas Gerais are experiencing vaccine shortages, despite the federal government's claims of regular deliveries. The state health department attributes the scarcity to higher-than-average vaccination rates, while the Ministry of Health is looking into logistical problems. The investigation follows reports of shortages of vaccines for varicella, dengue, and COVID-19, among others. The Ministry of Health is working to identify any logistical issues that may be causing delays in vaccine delivery.
