Thousands of weary Pakistani laborers stormed a COVID-19 vaccination center in the capital Islamabad to protest the lack of approved Covid-19 vaccines that could allow them to work overseas. Saudi Arabia, which hosts tens of thousands of Pakistani workers every year, has declared it will not allow citizens who received the Chinese vaccine, and has only approved the AstraZeneca, Pfizer, Moderna (MRNA.O), and Johnson and Johnson vaccines.
