Accordingly, the Government has assigned the Ministry of Health (MoH) to urgently organise the purchase of vaccines as quickly as possible so that vaccinations can be widely distributed to the people.
Previously, Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh has repeatedly emphasised that buying COVID-19 vaccines is a necessary and urgent task that must be carried out immediately.
In the spirit of “combating the pandemic is like combating the enemy” and mindful of the global shortage of COVID-19 vaccines, he requested the MoH and other ministries and sectors uphold their sense of responsibility to carry out measures to obtain vaccines as soon as possible.
The Government leader added that as this is an emergency situation, vaccine procurement must be handled in line with legal regulations on special and urgent circumstances and conducted immediately.
