The Biden administration will share part of its COVID-19 vaccine supply and provide relief to Taiwan, a move supported by a bipartisan cadre of Congress. The island is widely regarded as a success story in dealing with the pandemic, but in recent weeks, it has been fending off its largest outbreak to date.

President Joe Biden announced in May he would share some 80 million vaccine doses with other countries and unveiled on Thursday that Latin America, the Caribbean, South and Southeast Asia, and Africa would be prioritized.
