Kailangan pa ng bansa na makabili at makapagbakuna ng mas maraming Pilipino laban sa coronavirus disease (COVID-19).
Ito ang iginiit ni Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Director General Eric Domingo bilang pangontra sa pag-atake ng Covid 19.
“I think we’re all unanimous in knowing, even everybody naman in government knows that we need to vaccinate more people. So far we’ve vaccinated one million people but there are 108 million Filipinos. We need to go up to 70 million at least to get some form of herd immunity,” pahayag ni Domingo.
“So we really need to get more vaccines and make them available here. The vaccines work, the adverse events are very rare compared to the benefits we will get. But we just need to vaccinate a lot more people,” diin pa nito.
Una nang inihayag ni Presidential Spokesperson Atty. Harry Roque na mahigit isang milyong Pilipino na ang nabakunahan ng COVID-19 vaccine simula pa nitong Abril 11.
