The police and military must be given priority to receive a coronavirus (Covid-19) vaccine, according to President Rodrigo Duterte.
Duterte said he will need the cops and soldiers for the massive rollout of vaccines once they become available.
“I need a healthy military and police kasi ‘pag magkasakit lahat ‘yan, wala na akong maasahan, wala na tayong mautusan kung gawin ‘to, gawin doon,” the President said during his weekly address late Monday.
He also regarded them as the “errand (boys) of the Republic,” citing their role in responding to disasters and the Covid-19 pandemic.
“Kita naman ninyo ‘yung baha sa Luzon, several, nakita ninyo ‘yung military, Coast Guard, lahat na pumupunta na doon, pulis. And then they have to take care of the law and order situation.”
“So huwag na ninyong pahirapan masyado ‘yung pulis. Kung wala naman kayong gawin, eh ‘di matulog na lang kayo kaysa mag-inuman diyan tapos magkagulo and not only once but many times na madisgrasya ‘yung peace officer just because he intervenes itong mga away-away ninyo na inuman,” he concluded.
