70,200 doses were delivered yesterday to support Samoa’s national vaccine rollout, particularly for booster doses.
Samoa is currently experiencing community transmission of Covid-19 for the first time, making the arrival of these vaccines all the more important.
Australia will provide 111,150 doses of Pfizer Covid-19 vaccines to Samoa, through a partnership with UNICEF, to procure vaccines for partner countries in the Pacific by the end of 2022.
