Mobile vaccination sites have been deployed to public areas, such as the Northern Avenue, the Dalma Garden Mall and Megamall shopping centers in Yerevan, the Vardanants Plaza in Gyumri, the Hayk Plaza in Vanadzor and nearby the Dilijan City Hall.

Foreign nationals are also eligible to get the vaccine.

Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
