Bangladesh has attempted to obtain vaccines since the start of research on the disease, Hasina said during a parliamentary session on Saturday. “But now vaccines have arrived in Bangladesh,” Hasina said. The Serum Institute has, thus far, sent 10.2 million doses to Bangladesh. Bangladesh has also approved a deal with China to buy 15 million doses of the Sinopharm vaccine. With the 4.5 million doses still in stock, another 2.25 million people can be completely vaccinated.
