ICYMI: Vaccine czar Sec. Carlito Galvez Jr said the vaccines will be delivered “after eight weeks starting August” and will be distributed in bulk.

Galvez said that the COVAX facility has also committed to deliver a total of 44 million doses to the country this year.

Galvez stated that with the Pfizer and COVAX deals, the Philippines has already secured the delivery of 157 million doses, including 26 million doses from Sinovac, 10 million from Sputnik V, 20 million from Moderna and 17 million from Astrazeneca.“The vaccines from Pfizer will significantly boost our national immunization program and will enable us to realize our goal of achieving herd immunity by year end.

He explained that Pfizer vaccines have storage temperature requirements of -80 to -60 degree centigrade while Moderna and Sputnik require -20 storage temperature. “We intend to deploy the Pfizer, Sputnik V and Moderna vaccines as soon as possible and distribute it even to rural areas and communities. However, this will not be possible if the receiving LGU is not ready to handle these types of vaccines,” said Galvez.The vaccine czar said that scheduled delivery of Pfizer and Moderna will coincide with the opening of the national immunization program to the general population including those under the 12-15 age bracket.
