MANILA, Philippines — Health Secretary Francisco Duque III appealed to Public Attorney’s Office chief Persida Acosta to get vaccinated against COVID-19 after she revealed that she has opted not to get the shot due to age and health reasons.

 

Speaking to reporters on Thursday at the sidelines of the rollout of boosters at a pharmacy in Manila, Duque said Acosta’s age and supposed health woes make it all the more important for her to get vaccinated.

 

“I am appealing to PAO chief Acosta because I think she’s almost a senior citizen and she should be given additional protection through vaccination,” the health chief said in Filipino. “We don’t want her to end up in a dangerous state.”
