Egypt received 1,963,000 doses of Moderna and Pfizer coronavirus vaccines, on Saturday, at Cairo International Airport.

The shipment contains 462,000 doses of the Moderna vaccine and 1,501,000 doses of the Pfizer vaccine to combat COVID-19.

In this regard, the U.S. Embassy welcomed the arrival of an additional 1.5 million doses of Pfizer vaccine to Cairo on December 25.

Chargé d’affaires, Nicole Shampaine noted, “This delivery of another 1.5 million Pfizer vaccine doses to Egypt through COVAX means the United States has now donated 15 million doses of Coronavirus vaccines to the people of Egypt to help protect Egyptians from the virus and prevent the spread of its dangerous new strains. The emergence of the Omicron variant places even greater importance on our working together, as strategic partners, to overcome the pandemic.”

The Pfizer doses will be dispatched to Ministry of Health and Population facilities in Cairo and stored in UNICEF-funded ultra-cold storage equipment used exclusively for the Pfizer vaccine.

The vaccines will be distributed across the country for administration to Egyptian citizens and residents.

U.S. cooperation with Egypt in fighting the pandemic is wide-ranging. The U.S. government, through USAID, has provided more than $55 million to support Egypt’s Coronavirus response, reaching nearly 18 million people.

USAID programs train health care workers, help deliver vaccines to the Egyptian people, improve tracking of and response to the pandemic, and support small businesses. This support builds on the more than $1 billion the United States has invested in Egypt over the past 40 years to improve the health of all Egyptians.

It is worth mentioning that Egypt has managed so far to vaccinate around 50 million people against the Coronavirus, according to health officials.

Egypt’s vaccination campaign started in January using various types of imported and locally made vaccines and vaccinating millions of citizens.
