“I’m disturbed by a statement coming from the FDA, na parang sinisiraan pa ‘yong Sinovac, eh (that they seem to be bad-mouthing Sinovac). Nakakatakot ‘yong ganon pa ‘yong naririnig mo. (It’s scary to hear things like that). We should exercise caution in saying things like that, na hindi pwede sa health workers (that it’s not allowed for health workers),” Sotto said at the resumption of the Senate’s plenary discussion on the proposed “COVID-19 Vaccination Program Act” on February 22.
“Bakit sasabihin mong hindi pwede sa health workers ‘yon (Why would you say that the vaccines cannot be used on health workers)? We should be very cautious with things like that,” he further said.
