How dare you

DOH sec duqs thought(a tyrant & dictator) that he is the only exclusively taxpayer in this country so Filipinos should not be picky about vaccines. 'CASH''SUNDUAN' W/ CHINESE BLOOD PLASMA SINOVAC/SINOPHARM VACCINE!

Pano kurakot cya. Yung bakuna na may makukurakot cya ang pinipilit nyang bilin. Bkit d na lang sa kanya isaksak lahat yan? Katawan mo, buhay mo, papakialaman nya?

NO TO CORONAVAC only 49.8% efficacy! Frontliners should be respected. Mauna dapat si Duque and Porky Roque with Sinovac vaccine

SecDuque sabi ni bato sinopharm gusto niya

Am no guinea pig to be vaccinated bec u said so! Filipino Style Sugod mga Kapatid BUT MAUNA KAYO!

Kapal ng mukha mo. DuqueResign

Tanga talaga to eh. Wag mamili?

If these hospitals are private, it's a corporate decision. If employees are involved and aren't suited with the vaccine then it's a choice not a demanded requirement. My opinion.

Kapal ng mukha ng Duque ito.

Your utter negligence had put the Filipinos in deep shit.

May ikakapal pa pala ang mukha ni Sec.

Nabakunahan na rin ba si Duque?! Siya unahin ibakuna ha,.. parang kulang sa bakuna!

Mga pinoy lang talaga may issue sa vaccine na yan. Beggars can’t be choosers, people!

Kapaaaaaaal grabeeee

Hilig niya maglalabas ng ganyan tawanan ko talaga yan pag may sumapok dyan one of these days

He says that because they're going with Sinovac. They know it's not what people wanted, but they're too corrupt to care.

pera ng bayan/tax may right po pumili yung mamamayan kasi naman low quality ng vaccine pinili mo tang ina mo. inauna pa kasi yung commission.

What a disgrace!

Pickyng ina naman oh
