MANILA – Malacañang on Wednesday welcomed the proposal of the Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) to allow the deployment of thousands of healthcare workers, mostly nurses, in the United Kingdom and Germany in exchange for Covid-19 vaccines.
Presidential Spokesperson Harry Roque said while the government has already ordered enough Covid-19 vaccine supply for its people, “more is better than less.”
