NATANGGAP na ng Pilipinas ngayong gabi ang 1,124,100 doses ng AstraZeneca vaccines mula Japan nang lumapag ang bakunang donasyon sa Villamor Air Base.

Dumating sa ceremonial turnover si Pangulong Rodrigo Duterte, Japanese embassy officials, National Task Force (NTF) Against COVID-19 at Inter-Agency Task Force for the Management of Emerging Infectious Diseases (IATF-EID) executives.

“The vaccine donation is part of the initiative spearheaded by the Government of Japan to support Southeast Asian countries amid the COVID-19 pandemic,” said a post on the Facebook page of Radio Television Malacanang.

“It forms part of several aids that Japan had extended to the Philippines from the onset of the pandemic,” it added.
