Duterte: Poor families who got cash aid to get COVID-19 vaccine priorityMANILA, Philippines — Low-income families who received cash assistance from the government will be first to receive the vaccine against the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) once it becomes available, Who wants vaccine from China? 🤣 My fellow Filipino people. Don't take the vaccine. Something bigger is at stake. HCQ works. Good luck! In other countries this would be considered phase 2 or 3 of trials, but in the Philippines its an approved vaccine or what Roque touts as a live experiment!

PH ready to spend ₱20 billion to distribute free COVID-19 vaccines to 20 million peoplePresident Rodrigo Duterte is confident that a vaccine will be developed by December. Just in case no vaccine is developed, paano na? Who cares, pero lakas gumamit ng pera sa di pa siguradong bakuna. Totally untrustworthy statement from Duterte. All experts agree that the earliest date for a vaccine against Covid-19 is mid 2021. Possible that no vaccine will be found. Testing & production takes time. Well, maybe not in China. But who wants to be injected with their poison?!
