Naiinip na! Duterte ‘impatient’ over vaccine delivery delay: Palace

By Prince Golez

President Rodrigo Duterte has grown impatient over the delay in the arrival of coronavirus (Covid-19) vaccines from the COVAX facility, Malacañang said Friday.

“Tatapatin ko kayo. Si Presidente ang nagsalita na. Siya mismo naiinip na. Kinakailangan dumating na ang mga bakuna,” Presidential Spokesperson Harry Roque said in a PTV 4 interview.

“Kaya naman siguro dahil nagsalita na ng ganyan ang Presidente eh gagalaw na nang mabilis ang lahat,” added Roque.

Earlier, vaccine czar Carlito Galvez, Jr. said the absence of an indemnification law has delayed the delivery of 117,000 doses of the Covid-19 vaccine made by Pfizer and BioNTech through COVAX of the World Health Organization.

The COVID doses were supposed to arrive in the Philippines mid-February.
