“I am happy with this development. At least this can ease our anxiety because we have the vaccines already,” Bishop Oscar Florencio, CBCP-ECHC vice chairman, said in an interview Sunday, February 28.
Since the first batch of vaccines that is expected to arrive in the country is not enough for everyone, the prelate said, the people need to be patient.
