Axar.az reports that the president made the remarks at a national anti-coronavirus headquarters meeting in Tehran.

When home-made vaccine enters the market, conditions will become better, then vaccination will start in a few days, President Rouhani announced.

He further hoped that public vaccination would have ended by late summer.

Within three or four months, vaccination can be completed, the president underlined.
