How many doses of vaccines have our national government secured already?
And then each LGU is getting their own supply of vaccines for their consitituents.
Hindi kaya sumobra naman ang vaccines natin?

nasa news dami LGU nag annouce ng deal with Astra Zeneca
inumpisahan ni yorme so lahat ng LGU na-pressure gumaya para di mag mukhang walang ginagawa
"LGU signs deal for X doses of vaccine"
sound good on paper
pero madami bansa nag oorder kay AZN
the contract manufacturer in India won't be exporting yet -- they'll prioritize India first
matagal tagal pa ito
magkano nga ba ang cost per dosage ng sinopharm as compared to the vaccines of moderna, astra zeneca, pfizer , etc?
kasi ang LGUs puro astra zeneca pero ang national gov't stick to sinopharm talaga. loyal sila talaga eh![]()

i've been listening to the proceedings over the radio.
"ang gulo nila", in my opinion.
they seem to be bound by laws (synonym: red tape)...
...hey! you're the lawmakers! you can do something about it!
after all, it's an emergency.
Most vaccine are two doses needed for complete vaccination including those procured by the Gov't and LGU. so if they report 25M doses, it will only inoculate 12.5M people in a perfect scenario.
What i know is these vaccines will give the immunity for around 1 year only so that we may need another vaccine shot next year. Similar to the FLU shots. so we really need a lot more than whats reported.
What should be worrying is the expiration dates of the vaccine since we know how slow the government moves. Add to that the reluctant population to get the vaccine baka ma expire yung mga vaccine sa Bodega.
My question, like Dr. D, is anyone in our government keeping count of the vaccine procurements? Eventually, all LGUs will be buying their own supply of vaccines. Syempre sasabihin ng constituents nila, bakit si ganitong city kaya bumili, dapat tayo din. And then the national government also buys vaccines. Sayang lang ang pera if sumobra ang bili.

Brazil Strain...
Another new coronavirus variant found in Japan | The Japan Times
"At the moment, there is no proof showing the new variant found in those from Brazil is high in infectiousness," Takaji Wakita, head of the National Institute of Infectious Diseases (NIID), told a health ministry briefing.
Still, Brazil's Health Ministry said it has been notified by Japanese authorities that the new variant has 12 mutations, one of which is also present in the variants found in the U.K. and South Africa. "It implies a potential higher virus infectiousness," it said.
Of the four travelers who arrived at Tokyo's Haneda Airport on Jan. 2, a man in his 40s had a problem breathing, a woman in her 30s had a headache and sore throat and a teenage male had a fever, while a teenage girl showed no symptoms, the health ministry said.
The four people tested positive for the novel coronavirus in airport quarantine, and the new mutant strain was detected through a detailed examination by the NIID, according to the ministry.
Looks like nakakalusot pa rin si COVID kahit 72 hours before flight yung test...
