The Department of Health said on Tuesday that some 390,000 doses of bivalent vaccines for COVID-19 are expected to arrive in the country by the end of the month.

"Tayo po ay nakapag-umpisa na at nakuha na natin yung [EUA] na kailangan mula sa Food and Drug Administration. Atin na lang pong ginagawa ay nagfa-finalize ng mga dokumento,” she said during a press briefing. The bivalent vaccines made by the two companies can be used for the original strain of the coronavirus as well as Omicron and its subvariants.

"Unang una yung sa COVAX, hindi pa naman tayo nagkakaroon ng final agreements because yung unang batch na dapat ide-deliver sa atin ay medyo naantala. Kaya naibigay muna nila sa ibang bansa,” Vergeire said.
