It has been revealed that 80 percent of Mongolian population – many of whom live in poverty – want to get the coronavirus vaccine for free; some, 61 percent of Mongolians want to get jabs even if they have to pay .

The figures come from a survey about ‘Covid-19 impacts on society’ conducted jointly by National Statistics Office of Mongolia and the World Bank.

However, people who participated in the survey confirmed that they can afford to pay up to MNT 25,000 for the Covid-19 vaccine.
