‘Magpa-injection ako’: Can Duterte really be included in clinical trials for Russia’s COVID19 vaccine?
MANILA — A day before Russia announced that it has already approved its COVID-19 vaccine, Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte said he was willing to be “experimented on” with it to prove it is safe and effective.
“'Pag medyo ayos na yung resulta doon at successful, safe and can protect, so, pwede na tayo magbakuna sa special groups na tinatawag,” she added. “'Pag lumabas sya sa exclusion, hindi sya pe-pwede. Pero kung papasa sya, kasi may checklist yun, why not?” she said of Duterte. While Russia claims it now has the first COVID-19 vaccine in the world, some have questioned the process it underwent since it was approved in less than two months.
