Haiti sending unused and expiring Covid-19 vaccines back to the United States

The United States donated 500,000 doses off the Moderna Covid-19 vaccine to Haiti back in July most of which have not been used and will expire in November. Haiti is returning them back to the USA so that they can be sent elsewhere in the world where needed most.

The donation was made through COVAX, the Covid-19 Vaccine Global access, a facility which makes the covid-19 vaccine available for free or subsidized for the First Nations.
