VICE President Maria Leonor “Leni” Robredo is willing to get vaccinated against the coronavirus disease (Covid-19) in public, as part of the government’s effort to encourage Filipinos to be inoculated, her spokesman Barry Gutierrez said on Wednesday.

Gutierrez said this in response to Sen. Christopher Lawrence Go, who challenged Robredo to be among the first to get vaccinated, along with him and President Rodrigo Duterte, once the Covid-19 vaccines arrived in the country. This was in light of the low confidence rate of Filipinos as indicated in a recent Pulse Asia survey.
