Australia contributes to COVAX vaccines in Tonga

Australia’s $80 million contribution to the COVAX AMC has made this first round of deliveries possible. We will support Tonga deliver these lifesaving vaccines to frontline health workers, quarantine workers, the elderly and other vulnerable people.

“Australia will do this in partnership with your country’s priorities and needs” said Adrian Morrison, Australian High Commissioner to Tonga.

“There is no higher priority for Australia than working with our neighbours to access safe and effective COVID-19 vaccines.”
