This event objectively and accurately acknowledges VNVC's efforts over the past period, overcoming all difficulties and rapidly expanding its system to all parts of the country, especially in remote areas, so that all children and adults can receive vaccinations against diseases.

Notably, VNVC achieved a proud historical milestone as the first unit to successfully order and bring over 30 million doses of AstraZeneca's Covid-19 vaccine to Vietnam, transferring them to the Ministry of Health on a non-profit basis, promptly protecting the frontline in the fight against the pandemic and saving people's lives during the most dangerous period of the Covid-19 outbreak. During the pandemic, VNVC also provided free vaccinations to tens of thousands of healthcare workers and laborers, as well as participating in the rapid testing and vaccination campaign for the public during the critical period of the pandemic.

VNVC is currently a leading and reputable vaccination center in Vietnam, with nearly 150 centers in almost 50 provinces and cities nationwide (as of December 2023). It boasts an internationally standardized cold storage system for vaccines, a safe vaccination process, modern facilities and equipment, and dedicated customer service.

Many localities are experiencing shortages of important vaccines, causing many parents to worry that their children may miss out on disease prevention opportunities. VNVC is currently an official, comprehensive, and strategic partner with many domestic and international pharmaceutical companies and vaccine manufacturers, committed to providing a full range of vaccines for children and adults, especially those with the same uses as those in the Expanded Immunization Program and new generation vaccines such as 5-in-1, 6-in-1 (preventing diphtheria, pertussis, tetanus, hepatitis B, Hib, polio), Measles-Mumps-Rubella, tuberculosis, Pertussis-Diphtheria-Tetanus... contributing to alleviating vaccine shortages, helping people access high-quality vaccines more fully, and thereby increasing immunization coverage in the community.

VNVC has a team of over 6,000 doctors, nurses, and medical staff professionally trained in vaccination safety, painless injection techniques, and pre-, during-, and post-vaccination procedures, all strictly monitored by a high-standard quality management system. In particular, VNVC has an international standard cold chain system, with 4 main cold storage warehouses and nearly 150 cold storage warehouses at vaccination centers, a system of refrigerated vehicles for vaccine transport, professional vaccine storage cabinets, and equipment for transportation, monitoring, and operation... ensuring the highest level of safety and effectiveness for users.

VNVC is also a pioneer in community consultation programs in Vietnam across multiple media channels, such as health seminars and online interactions on various platforms including television, newspapers, and social media. This allows for widespread and timely access to scientific and official information about vaccines and immunization, reaching tens of millions of people. Furthermore, VNVC strives to fulfill its social responsibility by participating in charitable activities such as: donating tens of thousands of COVID-19 test kits and medical equipment to medical units and field hospitals; sponsoring comprehensive health checkups for victims of Agent Orange/dioxin; supporting the provision of medicine and medical supplies to people in Central Vietnam affected by floods and storms; donating hundreds of bicycles to underprivileged students; and donating thousands of cows to farmers.

Notably, VNVC is the first unit to offer interest-free installment payments, allowing people to get vaccinated now without worrying about interest, in order to help them receive all necessary vaccinations amidst the difficult economic conditions following the pandemic.
