US delivers 1.35M Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 vaccines to Mexico
Fox News
A White House official confirmed on Tuesday that 1.35 million doses of Johnson & Johnson’s COVID-19 vaccine had arrived in Mexico.
The administration said 75% of the vaccines would be donated through COVAX and 25% would be shared "for immediate needs and to help with surges around the world." "The sharing of millions of U.S. vaccines with other countries signals a major commitment by the U.S. government," the Biden administration had said at the time. "Just like in the United States, we will move as expeditiously as possible, while abiding by U.S. and host country regulatory and legal requirements, to facilitate the safe and secure transport of vaccines across international borders. This will take time, but the president has directed the administration to use all the levers of the U.S. government to protect individuals from this virus as quickly as possible." The administration said it would disclose specific amounts and which vaccines were being shared as it worked through "logistical, regulatory and other parameters particular to each region and country."More Related News
