The Latvian government on Tuesday canceled its February decision to donate 51,840 doses of Comirnaty Omicron LP.8.1 vaccine to Ukraine. The Ministry of Health explained that after the decision was approved, the Ukrainian side reported that it could not accept the vaccines due to the conditions of the existing agreement with Pfizer, which it cannot assume. Due to Ukraine's refusal to implement the February decision, it has officially been recognized as null and void. The transfer of vaccines has effectively not started. Recall that in February, the Cabinet of Ministers decided to transfer surplus vaccines to Ukraine, as the demand for Covid-19 vaccinations in Latvia had sharply decreased, and it was no longer possible to use the entire stock before its expiration date. Furthermore, back in January, Ukraine itself had appealed to Latvia with a request to urgently provide about 50,000 doses of Comirnaty Omicron LP.8.1 due to the worsening epidemiological situation and depletion of national reserves. For convenience in transportation, the volume of the supply was increased to 51,840 doses. Up to 30,000 euros was planned to be spent on the delivery of the vaccines: about 16,500 euros for transportation and approximately 13,500 euros for insurance. The vaccines themselves were purchased and paid for by Latvia earlier — their cost amounted to 1,132,186 euros. The storage until the expiration date will cost approximately 1,208 euros, and possible disposal will cost another 135 euros. The Ministry of Health also noted that the possibility of selling these vaccines to other countries, including Ukraine, was considered, but the manufacturer Pfizer did not grant such permission. Therefore, the free transfer was considered the only possible option, which ultimately could not be realized.
