Head of the Indonesian Food and Drug Supervisory Agency (BPOM) Penny Lukito has confirmed that two domestically made COVID-19 vaccines, namely Indovac and Inavec, are expected to obtain an emergency use authorisation (EUA) from BPOM in September 2022.
Indonesia recorded a daily spike of 25,830 COVID-19 cases on July 2, while Cambodia decided to suspend the operation of the Olympic Market in Phnom Penh to prevent the spread of the epidemic.
The emergency use authorisation for a COVID-19 vaccine is necessary but it must be based on sufficient scientific data, a health official said on June 22.
The Philippines' Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has granted the emergency use authorisation for American drug maker Moderna's COVID-19 vaccine, FDA Director General Enrique Domingo said on May 5.
