The vaccine with the highest efficacy rating so far can only be administered in Metro Manila, Cebu, and Davao, says Presidential Spokesman Harry Roque
Filipinos living in certain provinces in the Philippines will likely miss out on the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine because of the lack of ultracold-storage facilities, Malacañang said on Tuesday, January 12.
The Pfizer vaccine has reported the highest efficacy against COVID-19, 95%, out of other vaccines so far.
“Pero hindi naman lahat ‘yan pwede piliin ng ating mga kababayan dahil ‘yung Pfizer po, kinakailangan ng -70 [degrees Celsius], ibig sabihin po, para lang po ‘yan sa Manila, Cebu, Davao na may mga cold-storage facility,” said Roque during a Palace news briefing.
