ISLAMABAD, December 22: To continue our shared efforts to combat COVID-19, the United States has shipped five million more doses of Pfizer COVID-19 vaccines to Pakistan. This donation brings the total number of COVID-19 vaccines provided by the U.S. government to the Pakistani people to more than 32.6 million.
These Pfizer vaccines are part of the 500 million Pfizer doses the United States purchased this summer to deliver to 92 countries worldwide, including Pakistan, to fulfill President Biden’s commitment to provide safe and effective vaccines around the world and supercharge the global fight against the pandemic. Pakistan has received more U.S. vaccine doses than any other country in the world, and the United States has already delivered more than 300 million doses of the COVID-19 vaccine worldwide.
The United States has also provided $69.4 million in COVID-19 assistance through our partnership with the Government of Pakistan. Since the start of the pandemic, the United States has worked together with Pakistan to improve infection prevention and control, enhance patient care, expand laboratory testing, disease monitoring, and case tracking in all districts, and support frontline healthcare workers. – TLTP
