While the exact distribution of Sputnik V and QazVac vaccines in Kazakhstan by region can't be found, it's critical to note that dog rabies remains endemic, with only about 21.10% dog vaccination coverage annually. Regional awareness levels of rabies may impact disease control and vaccination attitudes [4]. Additionally, a poultry vaccination program against Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (HPAI) has been underway, with outbreaks occurring in various regions [5]. As for COVID-19 vaccination statistics, specifics on the regional distribution might require consulting Kazakhstan's Ministry of Health or relevant health organizations partaking in the national vaccination program.

  1. In Kazakhstan, the indigenous QazVac vaccine and the Russian-made Sputnik V are being used to tackle the coronavirus outbreak.
  2. As of June 5, Almaty, one of the regions in Kazakhstan, has administered 318,046 first doses and 204,311 second doses of the vaccines.
  3. Science and health-and-wellness reports suggest that while the exact distribution of Sputnik V and QazVac vaccines in Kazakhstan by region isn't specified, it's important to address ongoing issues such as dog rabies and Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (HPAI) in poultry.
  4. For more detailed information about the regional distribution of COVID-19 vaccines in Kazakhstan, it's advisable to consult the Ministry of Health or relevant health organizations involved in the national vaccination program.
