Metro Manila (CNN Philippines, March 14) For Vice President Leni Robredo, the recent breach in health protocol by Philippine National Police Chief Gen. Debold Sinas should be a teaching moment for everyone on the importance of responsibility, especially for public officials, amid the pandemic. Dapat nga tayo yung example. Walang excuse dahil wala namang nae-excuse sa virus diba so dapat talaga kung ano yung policy on the ground sumunod tayo, Robredo said Sunday in her weekly radio show Biserbisyong Leni over RMN DZXL.
[Translation: We should even be the ones leading by example. There should be no excuses because no one is excused from the virus, right? We should be following the policy on the ground.]

Metro Manila (CNN Philippines, March 7) Vice President Leni Robredo said the free COVID-19 vaccines that have been sent to the country offered hope for Filipinos, after almost a year in quarantine.
In her weekly radio show Biserbisyong Leni, Robredo on Sunday said she was grateful for the donated COVID-19 vaccines as they provide a shot of hope for the Philippines which has been on community quarantine for a year, with the nationwide tally of infections reaching 594,412 as of Sunday. Matagal na panahon na parang impatient tayo kasi nakikita natin iyong ibang mga bansa nagpapaturok nanag-rollout na ng vaccination, pero at last dumating na dito sa atin, she said.
