Taiwanese flying to US, China for vaccines as island's Covid-19 situation worsens

[superadmin]

TAIPEI - Mr Miles Hu plans to get his Covid-19 vaccination in the United States later this month, joining other anxious Taiwanese who are seeking the jabs elsewhere because of the slow rate of vaccination at home.

"I'm pretty sure Taiwan won't have enough vaccines for everyone until year-end, so I decided to combine a work trip with the vaccination," said the 40-year-old who manages tech investments.

Mr Hu told The Straits Times that he will be travelling to Los Angeles, and plans to book an appointment to get vaccinated at a pharmacy near his Airbnb lodging.
