Staff comments

1. Record ID#89244 captures the Chinese Government's donation of 60,400 Sinopharm COVID-19 vaccine doses to the Government of Kiribati which AidData estimated to be worth $1,087,200 USD according to $18 USD price of a single Sinopharm COVID-19 dose from the UNICEF COVID-19 Vaccine Market Dashboard (https://www.oecd.org/officialdocuments/publicdisplaydocumentpdf/?cote=DCD/DAC/STAT(2022)33&docLanguage=En). The $400,894 AUD grant likely specifically supported the rollout and transportation of that vaccine donation to Kiribati.
