Almost 800,000 doses of Pfizer vaccines against COVID-19 arrived in the country on Thursday night.
A video on PTV’s Facebook page showed that 797,940 doses of Pfizer vaccines arrived at Ninoy Aquino International (NAIA) Terminal 3.
Vaccine Czar Carlito Galvez expressed gratitude to the United States government and Pfizer for the delivery of the vaccines against COVID-19.
Galvez said the arrival of the Pfizer vaccines is one of the biggest shipments this week.
“We have an average now of more or less 500,000 to 600,000 jabs per day, last two days ago we have rebounded to 628,000 jabs per day,” the vaccine czar said during the arrival of the Pfizer vaccines.
“Bibigyan po natin ng priority areas definitely yung major cities at yung Region 3 and 4A, also yung areas ng Region 10 at 6,” he added.
[We will definitely give priority areas to the major cities and Region 3 and 4A, as well as the areas of Region 10 and 6.]
Galvez also thanked the US government and the COVAX facility for the donation of 994,000 vaccines of Pfizer on Wednesday.
The vaccine czar said that there would be another batch of Pfizer vaccines arriving next week. -NB, GMA News
