The move was made after the Vietnam Leather, Footwear and Handbag Association, The Vietnam Textile and Apparel Association, the Vietnam Electronic Industries Association and Handicraft and Wood Industry Association of HCM City asked the government to support a Covid-19 vaccine purchase to vaccinate their staff in export areas.
The associations have found a vaccine source from a UAE group, so, they expect that the government and the Ministry of Health will help to chair the negotiation with the partner for the vaccine purchase. All related costs will be paid by the associations’ businesses.
The prime minister agreed on the recommendation and urged the Ministry of Health for the implementation.
