Published December 18, 2020 9:59am The Confidentiality Disclosure Agreement (CDA) that the Philippine government entered with American firm Pfizer for COVID-19 vaccine procurement did not include vaccine supply, Health Undersecretary Maria Rosario Vergeire said Friday. Vergeire was responding to a question regarding comments made by Foreign Affairs Secretary Teddy Boy Locsin, Jr. and Senator Panfilo Lacson that Health Secretary Francisco Duque III’s alleged late action on the CDA with Pfizer cost the Philippines early access to Pfizer s vaccine. “Iyong pag-uusap sa CDA, initial negotiation iyon between the government and Pfizer para makita natin ang mga dokumento at mapag-aralan natin ang profile nila. Wala pa sa stage na magkakaroon tayo ng ganitong doses by this time,” Vergeire said in an interview on Unang Balita.
