MANILA - Some Filipinos are looking for ways to get inoculated against COVID-19 as the government has yet to say with certainty the schedule of the availability of the vaccine against the new coronavi

rus in the Philippines, a health expert said Monday.

"Some of my patients would like to go to the US this March. Iniisip nila, by that time, 'yung priority list ng America, more or less, they would go to the Phase 2. So, baka makakuha sila doon, lalo na kung green card holder yung iba," he said. Sen. Panfilo Lacson and House Majority Leader Martin Romualdez were earlier reported to have received the vaccine this year, but both lawmakers have neither confirmed nor denied the allegations.

Vaccinations done without the government's permission may "skew" the data on whether or not the Philippines has already vaccinated 60 percent of its population, the number needed for the country to develop herd immunity against COVID-19. "[It] may actually lead to a sabotage of the national program of the government, considering the low acceptability of the Filipinos to vaccination," he said.
