DOH Memorandum 2022-0041 released January 24 stated: “In case the parent/guardian refuses to give consent to the vaccination despite the desire and willingness of the minor child to have himself/herself vaccinated, or there are no persons that may legally exercise parental authority over the child, the State may act as parens patriae and give the necessary consent.
Therefore, the proper officer representing the State as parens patriae may sign the consent form. In this regard, the [Department of Social Welfare and Development] or its city/municipal counterparts shall serve as the proper office who shall represent the State.”“Government cannot usurp parental authority. Parents have the right to decide on the health and safety of their children,” Marcos said in a statement.
DFernandezINQ Whoever drafted this provision has done the country a great disservice. The memo could have survived even without this substitute parental authority by the state.And between the wisdom of the DOH and the parents as to what's best for kids, I will always follow that of the parents
DFernandezINQ Wow. Make sure DOH is responsible for whatever may happen to children long term. Remember what's RNA in this new vaccine. Wag magbulagbulagan DOH. Both Doctors different opinions. 😬😬😷😷😷😷
