The Philippine supply of COVID-19 vaccines from American firms is insufficient for now, Malacañang said on Tuesday, after a poll showed that majority of Filipinos prefer the US as source of coronavirus jabs.

A survey by the Social Weather Stations released on Monday showed about 63 percent of respondents wanted vaccines from the US. The same poll revealed that about 39 percent of respondents prefer the coronavirus vaccine from Beijing-based Sinovac Biotech, while 32 percent most like the COVID-19 jab from US-based Pfizer.

"Bagama't mayroon tayong preference sa stateside, unahin na po muna natin ang ating mga buhay, ang buhay ng ating pamilya, ng ating komunidad. Magpabakuna na po kung ano available," he said in a press briefing. Sinovac jabs account for the majority of the Philippines' total 8.279 million COVID-19 jabs, at least 4.3 million of which has been administered as of May 24.
