PRC plans 'buy 1 donate 1' COVID-19 vaccine scheme

Philippine Red Cross Chairman Senator Richard Gordon plans to purchase one million doses of COVID-19 vaccines from Pfizer and AstraZeneca on a 'buy 1, donate 1' scheme.

Gordon stated they are negotiating with the companies but may initially buy around 200,000 to 250,000 doses due to financial constraints.

The Red Cross has set aside $20 million for its vaccination program and is studying the cost of the vaccine under this program.
