Quezon City First District Rep. Juan Carlos “Arjo” Atayde, one of the 173 principal authors of the bill that already passed on its third reading last December, said that it’s about time to push for the bill to become a law to avoid any more medical setbacks. “As long as these health emergency materials are recommended by the WHO, Health Technology Assessment Council , or by DOH-approved clinical practice or interim guidelines, they can be procured without hassle during times of public health emergencies,” he explained.
“In reality, one of the concrete options of the DOH to address the delay in the procurement of the bivalent COVID vaccines is the passage of the CDC Act. It’s Dr. Maria Rosario Vergeire who already said it,” the Quezon City first-year lawmaker said.
