TAIPEI — The United States will donate 750,000 COVID-19 vaccine doses to Taiwan as part of the country’s plan to share shots globally, U.S. Senator Tammy Duckworth said on Sunday, offering a much-needed boost to the island’s fight against the pandemic. Taiwan is dealing with a spike in domestic cases but has been affected like many places by global vaccines shortages. She did not give details of which vaccines Taiwan would get or when. Standing by Duckworth’s side, Taiwan Foreign Minister Joseph Wu thanked the United States for the donation.
