The Philippines' vaccine expert panel is also in talks with the United States, Australia, Taiwan, China, and other European countries for vaccines being developed in these countries.

Following President Rodrigo Duterte’s vote of confidence for Russia’s controversial Sputnik V vaccine, state scientists allayed concerns the Philippines would prioritize it for trials, saying all potential vaccines being reviewed were on “equal footing.”on Thursday, August 13, that while Russia may have been the first country to register and approve a COVID-19 vaccine, the Philippine was still in talks with other countries for trials of other vaccines.

The DOST, which currently leads the government’s sub-technical working group on vaccine development, earlier eyed to begin Phase 3 clinical trials for at least 5 vaccine candidates by October. These include 3 from Sinovac, Sinopharm, and the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences in China as well as two being developed by Adimmune Corporation and Academia Sinica in Taiwan.

Philippine Council for Health Research and Development Executive Director Jaime Montoya said this will still depend on the decision of the DOST and Food and Drug Administration .

well in my opinion much better if meron ng nakatry ng mga vaccine na yan .Para masigurado if safe ba or hindi. So Let's pray na sa mga bansang yan ang magtagumpay sa paggawa ng vaccine .

CHOOSE WISELY!!!! We have to choose what's really good for us.

lahat naman ng mga bansang 'to, on-going ang trials e, pero China is on 3rd phase already. Sana matapos na talaga para may vaccine na tayo. HUHUHU

Among these countries, China's on-going vaccine is on the first list, I think so. They are on 3rd clinical phase tho.

Sna piiliin ng mga experts natin yung gamot na malapit na matapos ang pag-aaral. and also yung approved by FDA na gamitin ng lahat.

I would be happy if they will choose China's on-going vaccine. Not to be bias ha, pero kasi we have to choose yung vaccine na dumaan ng trials and everything. Like duh, need na natin kaya.

Hoping that our experts would choose that medicine which undertaken clinical trials.

We are lucky that these countries are helping us. I hope they will finished clinical and laboratory trials already.

I hope our experts will choose the right vaccine. Yung dumaan sa mga tamang clinical trials and the like. I heard that China's vaccine is on 3rd phase already. Please choose wisely.

Yes, we really need to choose what vaccine to trust with. It needs to be approved by our health experts. I am rooting for China vaccine since it is on 3rd phase. We really need vaccine already.

Wag tayong mag-alala. I che check pa nmn ng FDA kung talagang pwede yan i enject sa ating katawan at kung ano ang magiging reaction ng ating katawan. COVID19

I certainly wouldn't inject anything from Russia or China into myself. It would probably contain something that broadcast my location and state of health over radio frequencies for the rest of my life.

Baka kasama nyo pa si Garin at Acosta ha? Utang na loob
