MANILA, Philippines — Manila's envoy to Beijing on Wednesday said some 500,000 more doses of Sinovac's COVID-19 jab will be delivered to the Philippines tomorrow. "This is the last tranche of COVID-19 vaccines coming from China this month," he wrote. "More vaccines from Sinovac are expected in June and the following months." Sinovac was the first ever direct purchase by the Duterte administration for a COVID-19 vaccine. It would add to the four other vaccine shipments sent to the country this May, or an earlier 1.5 million doses of Sinovac, 15,000 of Sputnik V, two million of AstraZeneca and over 193,000 of Pfizer.
