MANILA, Philippines — The Department of Health on Tuesday said the agency is in talks with two more countries that offered to donate bivalent COVID-19 vaccines.

 

“We are continuing negotiations and discussions with these countries so we can confirm immediately if the vaccines can be utilized in the country,” Health officer-in-charge Maria Rosario Vergeire said in a briefing. She did not disclose the two nations that offered to donate jabs.

 

The DOH said last week that the Philippines will receive 300,000 bivalent jabs from another nation.
