MORDENO But Guinoay said that most of his fellow Lumad in Lantud, a village of around 40 families, have been inoculated against the virus. Lintikan, a ritualist, said all of his four children were not vaccinated but never got infected with COVID-19. In contrast, he added, a niece and her husband, who were both inoculated, died from the virus.He admitted that most of the residents in his sitio, Intavas, availed of the vaccines. But he claimed that some of them who felt they had the symptoms of the virus went to him for treatment.
“I’m fit and well despite my age . My blood type is O. I’ve read an article that says people with type O blood are resistant to diseases,” he said. Bai Tinangkil Herminia Saway, a Talaandig, expressed ambivalence on vaccination. She said she was mainly obliged to submit to it owing to her function as the Indigenous Peoples Mandatory Representative to the barangay council of Songco, Lantapan town. Yet, she clarified that “if it happened that I wasn’t in the government, it would be up to my conscience.”
