In a radio interview, BAI Assistant Director Arlene Asteria V. Vytiaco said the bureau has yet to request funding and the matter still needs to be discussed.
“I would like to set the record straight hindi po ang gobyerno ang bibili ng bakuna. It is our local vaccine supplier, siya ang bibili ng bakuna ,” said Vytiaco “Kasi ang gobyerno, as of now, walang fund na allocated for [ASF] vaccine purchase. So if ever, gagawa pa lang po kami ng request. Pag-uusapan pa po iyon ,” she added.Vytiaco said the field and safety trial of the ASF vaccine from Vietnam has been completed.
“We have sent a letter of endorsement sa FDA to issue ng CPR but 'yung proseso kung kailan ito ma-re-release, nasa FDA po 'yun ,” she said.According to Vytiaco, Vietnam has allocated 600,000 ASF vaccines to the Philippines for this year.The BAI, according to Vytiaco, will create vaccination guidelines for the distribution of the ASF vaccines in the country.
Citing the data of the bureau, the BAI director said the Philippines has eight regions, 12 provinces, and 32 municipalities with active cases of ASF.
