The Philippines has expressed its intention to get some of the excess COVID-19 vaccines from Canada as part of the government’s efforts to boost the local supply.
At a Palace news conference on Monday, Philippine Ambassador to Canada Rodolfo Robles said Canada is expected to have a surplus of around 100 million doses.
“We are being listed among those who are interested to partake of the excess of the 100 million (doses). They expect to have a full vaccination of everybody by the middle of the fourth quarter,” Robles said.
“Before the end of the year, we will know how [much] excess Canada will have. I am really watching with an eagle eye on the prospect of getting some excess directly from Canada.”
