Dhaka, June 27 - The United States has donated another 4 million ready-to-use doses of Pfizer COVID-19 vaccines to Bangladesh.

This brings the total of US-donated vaccines to over 68 million doses delivered to date.

The doses will help the government of Bangladesh to expand vaccination and booster campaigns across the country and continue protecting people from COVID-19, said the US Embassy in Dhaka on Monday. - UNB
