Washington, D.C.-Magtatayo ng pasilidad ang vaccine manufacturer na Moderna sa Pilipinas.
Ito ay matapos ang pakikipagpulong ni Moderna Chief Commercial Officer Arpa Garay at Senior Vice President and General Manager Patrick Bergstedt kay Pangulong Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr., dito.
Sabi ni Garay, balak ng kanilang hanay na magtayo ngv “Shared Service Facility for Pharmacovigilance,” na inaasahang makapagbibigay ng trabaho sa mga Filipino pati na sa mga health professionals.
Ayon kay Garay, ang “Shared Service Facility for Pharmacovigilance” sa Pilipinas ang magsisilbi sa buong Asia Pacific Region.
“We are really excited to have selected the Philippines for the third one primarily because you know the capabilities exist. We have the talent that exists, and we know that the partnership will be one that can be beneficial for both Moderna and the Philippines,” pahayag ni Garay.
Samantala, sinabi ni Bergstedt na “perfect location” para sa kanilang third shared service facility sa buong mundo.
May kahalintulad na pasilidad ang Moderna sa Poland at Georgia.
Inaasahang nasa 50 staff ng health professionals ang magtatrabaho sa pasilidad na maaring itayo sa Makati City o sa Bonifacio Global City sa Taguig.
Nagpasalamat naman ang Pangulo sa Moderna.
“The opportunity to build shared services in areas of interest, connecting with the scientific, academic opportunity with Moderna, the ministry of health is something that we’re very, very interested in. The most important part is that we sat down and drew the program, and say this is how we approach the problem,” pahayag ng Pangulo.
“Those are the kind of skills that we need. With your experience in other countries, there are many lessons that we could learn that can be applied in the Philippines,” dagdag ng Pangulo.
