BANDAR SERI BEGAWAN, Dec 26 (Xinhua): The Brunei government has announced that the country is preparing for a prioritisation and national deployment strategy once a COVID-19 vaccine that is safe and effective is available for use.

According to Brunei's Ministry of Health, a technical committee has been established to develop and implement a National Vaccination Strategy. Due to the limited global supply of vaccines, vaccine distribution will be done in phases and priority will be given to high-risk individuals first.
