“It’s a mess how things are moving” – MUMN President on vaccinations

Feb 20 2021 Share

In an exclusive interview with The Malta Independent, Malta Union of Midwives and Nurses (MUMN) President Paul Pace revealed that nurses are only being given 5 or 6 vaccine doses per clinic per day, as opposed to the 80 doses they were promised.

Pace said that the inoculation programme is moving very slowly, where other countries are well into their programmes with the general public while Malta has just started the over-80 group.

Pace criticised the fact that nurses are being left idle after leaving their prior jobs and if clinics are not provided more vaccines by Wednesday, the MUMN will issue a directive for all nurses to go back to their original stations.
