“Ito ‘yung tamang bakuna para sa kanila kasi alam mo naman, may ibang mga bansa na may mga brands lang ng bakuna na nire-recognize ‘di ba?,” she added.“Kasi ngayon, ang tinuturukan pa lang yata karamihan, ‘yung pa-deploy na. Ang problema nung pa-deploy na, syempre, ‘pag first dose mo, maghihintay ka pa ‘di ba? Maghihintay ka pa ng second dose. Sana kahit wala pang date ‘yung pag-deploy sa kanila, i-prioritize na kasi ang problema nga natin ngayon trabaho,” she said.
According to Robredo, vaccination should be liberalized, saying her office has volunteers to administer the vaccines.“Ang daming bakuna ngayon pero masyado kasing centralized. Sana mas i-liberalize nila ‘yung mga kumpanya para mabakunahan na nila ‘yung kanilang mga employees, sige na. ‘Yung mga teachers na babalik sa paaralan, ‘yung mga kailangan nang bumalik sa trabaho, kailangang ma-deploy ulit, sana ayusin na ‘yun,” Robredo said.
