Baku/03.05.21/Turan: The State Agency for Compulsory Health Insurance (SACHI) has finally answered the questions of the Turan agency's information request regarding the advisability of using the Astrazeneca vaccine in connection with negative responses to this vaccine in Western countries.
“Although the conflict is formally settled, and we received answers to the questions, they have lost their relevance today. However, public interest was not satisfied when the topic of AstraZeneka was on the agenda,” said director of the agency Mehman Aliyev. The representative of the State Agency called Turan and explained that the untimely response was caused by technical reasons and the department want to maintain working relations with the press.
"For some reason, there was a delay in the development of the website of the Association for the Management of Territorial Medical Units (TƏBIB), but the issue is being resolved," said the representative of the State Agency for Medical Insurance. Because the required information has been provided, Turan will not appeal to the court due to failure to provide an answer to the information request. This is the content of the responses to the agency's request:
