Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte said he will not allow students to go back to school until a coronavirus vaccine is available, even as some countries resume in-person classes.
But in a speech aired late Monday, Duterte said the risk was too great, even if it held students back academically. “For me, vaccine first. If the vaccine is already there, then it’s okay,” he added. “If no one graduates, then so be it.” Public school normally runs from June to April in the Philippines, but authorities pushed back the start as cases rose and a strict lockdown brought most of the nation to a halt.
I agree with you Mr President of Philippines We must not play with the life of d future leaders of the country The vaccine is key for d resumption of schools as we ave no free medical care for our children What will be d use of resumption if 70% of d children are later isolated

You get sense die
That one concerns them. We have to reopen our economy and then our schools. A Vaccine might take years. We must learn to live with it.
That means Philippines students will not be going to school in at least 2 years.
So what if they fail to get d vaccine ds year which is likely to be the case.... We al need to move on nd educate ourselve on selfmedication.
