The support from the EU to the EU Member States with regards to the COVID-19 vaccination roll-out was two-fold. Firstly, by subsidising the value of the vaccines and secondly by setting up joint procurement arrangements at EU level.
In addition to vaccine subsidies, Malta also received a rebate of over €13.5 million as reimbursement for the expenditure it incurred for the vaccines through ERDF.08.990 – Supporting the national health system to mitigate the risk factors due to COVID-19 pandemic with over 400,000 citizens now fully vaccinated.
