WASHINGTON - The United States plans to send roughly 4 million doses of AstraZeneca's COVID-19 vaccine that it is not using to Mexico and Canada in loan deals with the two countries, an administration official told Reuters on Thursday.

Mexico will receive 2.5 million doses of the vaccine and Canada will receive 1.5 million doses, the official said. "This virus has no borders," the official told Reuters on condition of anonymity. "We only put the virus behind us if we're helping our global partners."
