‘Not at this time:’ Gatchalian nixes calls allowing only fully vaxxed in malls, restos

Calls limiting to only fully vaccinated individuals access to malls and restaurants in Metro Manila should be put off until there’s enough supply of vaccines, Senator Win Gatchalian said on Wednesday.

“Sa ngayon mahirap gawin ‘yan dahil hindi sapat ang supply ng vaccines natin. Marami na ang gustong magpabakuna pero ang problema naman ay kulang ang supply,” he emphasized.

“Until such time na marami na ang bakuna at mayroon pa ring mga taong ayaw magpabakuna, siguro maaari na nating pag-isipan ang panukalang ‘yan para maengganyo natin ang lahat na maging bakunado,” added Gatchalian.

In Valenzuela City, for instance, the senator noted that the local government has a backlog of almost 300,000.

While 52 percent of the target population already received the first dose, only 34 percent have been administered with the second dose.

“Hindi sa ayaw ng mga taong magpabakuna, walang bakuna na makuha at maraming local government units (LGUs) na humihingi pa ng bakuna. Marami akong kausap na mga LGUs sa probinsya na namomroblema sa supply ng bakuna,” Gatchalian said.

“Kulang na kulang pa talaga,” he said.
