Vaccines from other sources: Stock depleting, but no deal yet

The stock of Oxford-AstraZeneca doses is running out fast but the government, despite frantic efforts to keep the inoculation campaign on track, is yet to secure a contract for bulk supply of alternative Covid-19 vaccines. The government suspended administration of the first dose on April 26, immediately after the Indian government barred export of Covishield the AstraZeneca vaccine produced by the Serum Institute of India. The Directorate General of Health Services (DGHS) yesterday said the stock of the Covid-19 vaccine is running out as there are only 14 lakh jabs in stock with no sign of fresh shipment from India. There will be a vaccine crisis if a fresh consignment does not arrive in the country before the existing stock is exhausted, DGHS spokesperson Dr Robed Amin said.

Chinese Vaccine: 5 lakh doses may arrive on May 10

Officials are making preparations to receive the shots that will be used as the first jab. The government may send a special plane to bring the doses from Beijing, officials said. We have written to the foreign ministry to take action. Bangladesh Air Force will probably bring the vaccine from Beijing on May 10, Syed Mojibul Huq, additional secretary of the Health Services Division of the health ministry, told The Daily Star yesterday. The Chinese embassy in Dhaka on April 29 in a letter addressed to Joint Secretary Shahriar Kader Siddiky of the Economic Relations Division said a special flight would be needed to bring the 5,02,400 doses.
