The Department of Science and Technology’s (DOST) Vaccine Expert Panel (VEP) warned the public against interchanging coronavirus disease (COVID-19) vaccines, even as it appealed to wait for the start of the Philippines’ study on the safety and efficacy of mixing and matching five jab brands next month.

VEP chairperson Dr. Nina Gloriani said they should be given more time to study the safety and immunogenicity of interchanging vaccine brands.
“We are all one in all the experts group that we are not recommending interchanging vaccines until we generate local data. That’s all I can say,” she told the Manila Bulletin in a Viber message.

DOST Undersecretary for Research and Development Rowena Cristina L. Guevara, who leads the Task Group on Vaccine Evaluation and Selection (TG-VES), said the Philippine Society for Allergy, Asthma, and Immunology (PSAAI) study on the safety and immunogenicity of interchanging vaccine brands has yet to start and will likely be conducted within the month of August.
“The vaccination for the mix and match study is targeted to start within August once all preparations are in place and vaccine supplies allocations have been confirmed with the DOH (Department of Health),” she told the Manila Bulletin in a Viber message.
