Science and Technology Secretary Fortunato de la Peña said the DOST must first obtain approval from the Food and Drug Administration and the Philippine Health Research Ethics Board. The study, which is seen to run until November 2022, will study the safety and immunogenicity of combining the Sinovac jab with a different COVID-19 vaccine brand. “Combinations of [the] Sinovac vaccine with other vaccine brands will be the main aim of the study due to it being the most stable vaccine supply in the country,” de la Peña said in a statement.
