Drilon sees Duterte s Sinopharm COVID-19 jab a personal decision

By HANA BORDEY, GMA News Published May 5, 2021 10:46am President Rodrigo Duterte’s inoculation of unregistered Sinopharm COVID-19 vaccines is a personal decision, Senate Minority Leader Franklin Drilon said Wednesday. “In my own personal view, the matter of inoculation is a personal decision. The brand that they use is a matter that you, yourself decide,” Drilon said in an ANC interview when asked about Duterte’s recent vaccination of China-made Sinopharm vaccine. “Yes, there is no Emergency Use Authorization, only a compassionate use, which means that if something happens to you because you disregarded the advice of the [Food and Drug Administration], that you are on your own lookout. You will be the one that will be prejudiced by your own act,” he added.
