In the first half of May, Hungary will donate 40,000 doses of coronavirus vaccines to the Czech Republic, Hungarian Foreign Minister Peter Siarto said on social media.
The donated doses will be of the Pfizer or Moderna vaccines, Czech Prime Minister Andrej Babis told the media yesterday.
Together with pledged donations from Austria (30,000 doses) and Slovenia (10,000), the vaccines donated by Hungary will make up for the 70,000 doses that the Czech Republic lost in a failed attempt to distribute 10,000,000 doses of Pfizer vaccines to EU countries. .
On Thursday, the EU failed to reach an agreement on the distribution of vaccines, which Pfizer promised to deliver by the end of June, rather than later in the year. Austria, Slovenia and the Czech Republic said they had suffered damage, the DPA recalled.
Finally, of the 10 million doses of 2.85 million, called “solidarity vaccines”, will be distributed to those in need in Bulgaria, Estonia, Latvia, Slovakia and Croatia.
Austria has already said that it is “incomprehensible” why the Czech Republic, which is badly affected by the dangerous British strain, has not received more doses. “We cannot accept that one of our neighboring countries has been neglected,” Austrian Chancellor Sebastian Kurz said in a statement on April 2.
