Protesting PGH workers demand ‘best vaccine’

HEALTH CARE workers at the Philippine General Hospital (PGH) have a choice in selecting a vaccine that has a higher efficacy rate, a spokesman said on Friday.

Dr. Jonas del Rosario told The Manila Times in a telephone interview that the vaccination of health workers in PGH was not mandatory and “they have the right of first refusal.... we will have to tell them what we know about the vaccine and they will get an informed decision.”
