Its a small country so there may not be much of an order.
Other countries have had problems just doing plain distribution.
Toss in a pecking order in the DR is could just be a big complication.
The government wants to end the pandemic and the fastest most straightforward way is give if away free to everyone.
Get those tourist dollars coming in.
First country to vaccinate their population will be the first visited by the tourists.

RD has been receiving tourists for several months now.

It will be interesting to see how the DR Govt will be making the vaccine available to those people who are illegally living in the DR,

Hi
I'd like to clarify a few things...
I have a Doctor friend (unemployed)- I want to buy the COVID vaccine for her.
She advised me that it is not free for medical personel, nor for anyone. Is this true??

I had heard it costs around 4000 peso's, could anyone tell me what it actually costs without insurance?

thx
Can not confirm for sure but the influenza vaccine was free for all included gringos. I think the covid vaccine will be free especially for health care providers and they will be fist inline. IMO This looks like a scam from your Doctor friend!
