Darating ang tinatayang 50,000 doses ng Sputnik V COVID-19 vaccine na nakatakdang i-deliver sa Pilipinas sa susunod pang mga araw, ayon kay Vaccine Czar Carlito Galvez, Jr.. Ipinaalam ng Russian Direct Investment Fund (RDIF) sa National Task Force Against COVID-19 vaccine cluster noong June 20 na ang pagdating ng vaccine doses ay ipinagpaliban, ani Galvez, “due to ongoing upgrades and latest developments on the vaccine.”
“RDIF has committed to update the Philippine Government on the definite date of delivery of the vaccines,” sabi pa ni Galvez.
Ang 50,000 shots ay nakalaan para sa second dose ng mga indibidwal na naunang nabakunahan nito lamang buwan ng Component I vaccines ng naturang brand. “We have already informed all local government units who have administered the first dose of Sputnik V to their constituents that the schedule for the second shot will likewise be pushed back and will be rescheduled,” saad ni Galvez.
Tiniyak naman ni Galvez sa publiko na ang nangyaring “unforeseen delay” sa pagdating ng mga bakuna ay hindi magkakaroon ng anumang kompromiso sa efficacy ng vaccines.
“We seek your kind understanding that this development is beyond the control of the Philippine government. The manufacturer is seeking more ways to improve and upgrade the vaccine that would be more beneficial and would be more effective in battling the emergence of new variants,” sabi ni Galvez. Sa ngayon, nakatanggap na ang Pilipinas ng 180,000 doses ng Sputnik V vaccine.
