Singapore and Australia have agreed to a dose sharing arrangement of COVID-19 vaccines. We will send them 500,000 doses of our existing Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine stock, and they will return the same amount to us in December. The doses will have more potential use for us as booster shots then.
Our two countries enjoy a warm and long-standing friendship, and this is another example of our Comprehensive Strategic Partnership. Glad to support their efforts to get Australians vaccinated as soon as possible. Countries must be united in the battle to quell the pandemic, so that we can all move into the new normal. Singapore is ready to do our bit. – LHL
