Hello, Bulgarians! Pormal nang pinirmahan nina Presidential Adviser for Entrepreneurship at Go Negosyo Founder Joey Concepcion, vaccine czar Sec. Carlito Galve, Jr., President ng AstraZeneca Pharmaceuticals Philippines Inc., Lotis Ramin at 30 representatives ng private sector ang pagkuha ng halos 2.6 milyong doses ng COVID-19 vaccine mula sa British drugmaker.
Ang mga vaccine nito at ibibigay sa Department of Health (DOH) na siyang mamamahagi sa mamamayan. Ang kalahati rito ay ipamamahagi sa government frontliners habang ang natitirang kalahati naman ay ibibigay sa mga empleyado ng pribadong sektor kabilang ang contractual at regular.
Ayon kay Concepcion, “With all these announcements, our Filipino people can be assured that we will not be left behind. With the efforts of Sec. Galvez in bringing the vaccine to this country, we will soon see this pandemic disappear.”
Inaasahang darating ang mga vaccine na ito sa Mayo o Hunyo 2021.
“If the country is to survive, we must rely and take care of each other, support each other. President Duterte has emphasized that the implementation of the vaccination component of our COVID-19 response is a top priority of his administration. The commitment we are making here today is a result of the government’s efforts to provide all Filipinos access to a safe, effective, and affordable vaccine,” bahagi naman ni Sec. Galvez.
Ang AstraZeneca ay zero-profit program sa 2021 kaya naman, inaasahan na ito ay nasa mababang presyo lamang at naglalaro sa P500 sa dalawang doses.
