a representative for unicef. >> it is natural that there is initial vaccine hesitancy. unicef and who and our partners and the gernment are working very hard to address that hesitancy through a number of different strategies. the first strategy is making sure it is the health-care workers that receive the vaccines so that when they give it to other groups, they are able to reassure the population. unicef and the government is working very closely on communications platform and communications campaign to explain the importance of the vaccination process, and then also we are working with communities themselves to explain to religious leaders, immunity leaders --community leaders, the importance of the vaccination campaign, and why it is important that everybody get the vaccine for themselves and their families and their communities. ros: there have been other examples around the world of senior public figures adding to the front of the vaccination queue. this is a protest in argentina after a minister resigned for allowing officials and their families to get jabs early.

a representative of unicef has caed it devastating. a similar fire in january left thousands without shelter. about one million refugees live in these makeshift homes after fleeing myanmar more than three years ago. >> we have just seen some local media reported that at least five people, including three children, were killed in the devastating fire. the fire broke out at 3:00 in the afternoon. it spread rapidly two different camps. i have spoken to some rohingya refugees living in the camp, and they tell me at least 3000 were affected by the fire. the local authorities in the u.n. agencies have not confirmed these numbers of deaths or tents gutted by the fire. but it was a huge fire. it was difficult for the firefighters to cope. after six hours of fighting, the firefighters were able to control the fires in the camp. many have become homeless, that is clear. rohingya of people are fleeing the camps to save their lives. these homes are made up of bamboo and plastics, some other one of the unicef officials in cox's bazar is telling us

unicef is the lead agency here and we're traveling with the health ministry and unicef.ing is that we think it has not been as bad here in africa. the pandemic has not struck has hard as predicted and these people still need vaccines. they need them for humanitarian reasons. and they also need them because of worldwide pandemic reasons. all of the epidemiologist that we have spoke to say that until we're all vaccinated none of us are safe. it brings us to today. it was really a thrill. unicef let me handle the bag with 40 precious doses of the vaccine that we took out to this incredibly remote island. it's a series of islands, in fact. 52 of them from vrumba in lake victoria. and they're greeted with surprise and joy by the people. so i have to say that in terms of going up to 30,000 feet here in africa about 20 million vaccines have been distributed by the covax operation. that is enough to vaccinate about 3%. 1% to 3% of the population by the end of the year. there will be more shipments coming, but that is still a very small down payment on the future. so, things got

and unicef, delivered the first shipment to malawi. 360,000 doses arrived on a flight from india.e of the coronavirus this year that was worse than the first wave last year were among the first to be vaccinated. and joining us now from malawi is praise magumbo, a registered nurse in the capital city. thank you very much for joining us tonight. tell us what it has meant for malawi and for you personally now that the vaccine has arrived. >> thank you for having me. about the vaccine, i think it's an exciting moment. after the second wave hit malawi, it was so bad. we lost a lot of people, colleagues, family, friends, and it was such a tough time to go through all of that. especially in january. and then now that numbers are declining and with the coming of the vaccine, we are hopeful that we have the right tools in fighting the covid-19 pandemic. >> and have you received the vaccine? >> yes, i got mine on wednesday. wednesday morning. >> health care workers are among the first people in malawi to get the vaccine. do you all now feel more protected now that you have the vaccine? >> y
