Pinag-iisipan na ng National Task Force Against Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) ang pagtanggal ng priority list sa pagbabakuna ng pamahalaan.
Sa pahayag ni vaccine czar at NTF chief implementer Secretary Carito Galvez Jr., layunin ng pagtatanggal na bigyang-daan ang pagturok sa lahat ng indibidwal na pumapayag na magpabakuna.
Paliwanag niya, nakipagpulong na ito sa mga pribadong sektor at kabilang ang nasabing usapin sa kanilang rekomendasyon na tinawag na, “Vax to the Max” kung saan pagbibigyan na ng pamahalaang ang lahat at hindi na susundin ang dating pinaiiral na priority list.
“Their [private sector] first proposal is called Vax to the Max. This means that we have to vaccinate all the willings. We will do away with the sequential [strategy] and we will widen [the coverage] so that those who want to get the vaccine can do so,” pahayag ni Galvez kay Pangulong Rodrigo Duterte sa “Talk to the People” public address nitong Martes ng gabi.

“If they are vaccinated, they could be the only ones allowed to go out. They could be the only ones allowed to dine-in, travel, and they will have no restrictions.That’s what Israel did, and they also subjected the unvaccinated to swab testevery week, the expenses of which will be shouldered by them [unvaccinated]. So these are the vaccination mandates, meaning it will entice most of our unvaccinated to be vaccinated,” dagdag nito.
Gayunman, magiging problema aniya ito sa malalayo at liblib na lugar na madalang na maabot ng suplay ng bakuna.
“We are addressing the logistical challenge at the regional, provincial, and municipal deployment and administration because we noticed that it takes more or less seven to nine days before the vaccines are deployed in the vaccination sites,” paliwanag pa ng opisyal.
