As a gesture of solidarity in the face of vaccine shortages and risks posed
by new coronavirus variants, Poland will hand over 400,000 AstraZeneca
vaccine doses to Taiwan. This makes Poland Taiwan’s third largest vaccine
donor, after the US and Japan.
面臨疫苗短缺及新變種病毒所帶來的危機，為了展現團結一致，波蘭將致贈40萬劑AZ疫苗
給台灣，這使得波蘭成為繼美國、日本之後，捐贈疫苗給台灣的第三大國。
The ongoing pandemic has presented the international community with
unprecedented challenges that require extraordinary international efforts.
International solidarity and mutual support are crucial in the global fight
against the COVID-19 virus. During the first wave of the pandemic, Taiwan
donated 1,000,000 face masks, 5,000 protective suits, and 20,000 surgical
gowns to Poland. Bearing in mind this important gesture of solidarity, Poland
will now donate over 400,000 SARS-CoV-2 vaccine doses to Taiwan to step up
its vaccination efforts. Increasing the global number of vaccinated people is
in everyone’s interest.
持續的疫情帶給國際社會前所未有的挑戰，需要加倍的國際合作才能克服。因此，國際團
結及相互支援在對抗全球武肺疫情時至關重要。
去年第一波疫情時，台灣捐贈給波蘭1百萬片口罩、5000套防護衣、20000件手術服。我們
對這個展現團結的作為銘感在心，現在，我們將捐贈40萬劑疫苗，以加強台灣接種疫苗的
力道
全球接種人口的提升，對大家都有好處
Poland’s initiative is yet another recent example of Poland-Taiwan close
cooperation in the face of difficult challenges. In May 2021, the Polish
Office in Taipei handed over a total of 1,500 protective suits to the Taipei
City Hall. During the pandemic, Poland also helped Taiwanese students get
back home, co-organising directs flights from Warsaw to Taipei on board a
special chartered aircraft of LOT Polish Airlines. At present, about 1,000
Taiwanese doctors educated at Polish medical universities are involved in the
fight against the coronavirus pandemic in Taiwan. Depending on the
epidemiological situation across the world, humanitarian needs, as well as
our capacities and supplies, in the future we may donate more vaccine batches
to other foreign partners in need , guided by the principle of solidarity,
which is the cornerstone of the Polish government’s domestic and
international policies.
這次的捐贈，是台灣和波蘭在面臨困難挑戰時，通力合作的另一個近例。
今年五月，波蘭駐台代表處捐贈給台北市府1500套防護服；疫情期間，波蘭政府也用波蘭
航空包機從華沙直航，載送台灣學生返鄉；目前約有1000名在波蘭接受醫學教育的台灣學
生回到故鄉，站在第一線對抗武肺疫情。
未來隨著全球疫情發展、人道需求，依據我們自身量能，我們可能再度本著團結精神、致
贈疫苗給我們的外國夥伴，團結，就是波蘭外交與內政的基石。
