US to give Philippines $5M fund assistance for Covid-19 vax rollout

THE United States Government will give an additional $5 million or around P286 million to the Philippines to fund efforts for the acceleration of coronavirus disease vaccination rollout in the country.

He said the financial assistance, which will be coursed through the US Agency for International Development under the American Rescue Plan, will help “support vaccine distribution for children and adults in line with the Philippine government’s Covid-19 vaccination efforts to intensify and strengthen the country’s wall of immunity.”

“We have been working hard to continue getting everyone, not only in the United States, but everyone around the world, vaccinated. I spent the first year plus traveling all around the country encouraging Americans to get vaccinated, and I take that same encouragement here in the Philippines because we need to keep fighting, we need to keep pushing forward on this vaccination,” he said.
