everyone—the 70 million adults that will have been vaccinated this year, plus the young teens mentioned above. I’m not sure about the timing. When will these booster shots be given? Next year? Because we have scarcely made a dent on the adults, so shouldn’t the costs be borne by next year’s budget?
Let’s concentrate on the word “limited” first. That means “restricted in size, amount, or extent.” Now for the “inefficiently implemented” part. “Inefficient” means wasting or failing to make the best use of time or resources, and “implement” is to put into effect. In effect, we have been told, by objective and highly knowledgeable outsiders who have studied most countries, that this government’s decisions on the pandemic were not only insufficient, they were also put into effect inadequately.
But this administration still has the opportunity to say it is sorry for its sins of omission, and try to make up for them.
That’s from only 17 individuals with wealth of roughly P50 billion and above. There are 25 million families in the Philippines. And I would guess that at the very least, the top 1/10th percent, or about 25,000 families in the country, have net worths of at least P1 billion. You think not, Reader? No problem. The government can lower the minimum taxable wealth: P500 million net worth. Or even P100 million net worth. Or even P50 million net worth.
