Roque says don't be choosy, avoid colonial mentality in picking vaccine

Wazzup Pilipinas!

Palace spokesperson Harry Roque takes a jab at those who prefer the COVID-19 vaccine of American pharmaceutical firm Pfizer. 

May bakuna na from China. Hindi tayo daw pwede picky. Huwag choosy! Roque said Filipinos cannot choose which vaccine brand they will receive in the government’s vaccination program. 

Roque: “Totoo po, meron tayong lahat na karapatan para sa mabuting kalusugan pero hindi naman po pwede na pihikan dahil napakaraming Pilipino na dapat turukan.”

Roque announced that COVID-19 vaccines developed by China-based biopharmaceutical company Sinovac will start to arrive in the country this February. 

Roque said Filipinos included in the first batch of the government's vaccination program can't choose the brand of COVID-19 vaccine they will receive. 

They may opt not to take the vaccine but they will lose their priority status. 

The issue here is not colonial mentality; it's the procured vaccines' efficacy, and the overall health and safety of millions of Filipinos. Roque's mental gymnastics baffles me every single day.

Colonial mentality has nothing to do w/ picking vaccine. It doesn't matter whether the vaccine is from China, Europe, America, or Timbuktu. What matters is if it is the best for the Filipinos.

It's called logical reasoning. Palibhasa wala sila nun! Only blind obedience from Duterte!

Kung ikaw ba tatanungin, ano bibilhin mo yun low-quality na mahal, o yun mas mababa ang presyo pero de-kalidad.

Huwag mo gamitan ang tao ng co-colonial mentality. 

Mahiya ka naman sa mga pinagdaanan mo bago mo nakuha diploma mo.

Napakarami raw Pilipino na dapat turokan eh bakit doon tayo sa mahal at 50% lang ang bisa at maraming side effects? Bakit hindi doon sa mas mura na mas ma bisa ng kulang 100%? Mas marami tayong mabibili na vaccine kung yung mas mura ang bibilhin.

Paano naging pihikan ang pagpili sa bakuna na mas epektibo? Buhay ang pinag-uusapan dito. Bakit sila ang nasusunod eh tax Naman namin ang ipangbibili ninyo?

Talagang walang sense. Kung ikaw client, magkakanvas ka ng  good quality at ok yong price. Di yong wala na ngang quality mataas pa ang price!

Bakit hindi puwedeng pumili? Nasa communist country na ba ako nakatira o nalahian na tayo ng mga demonyong komunista from China?

Usually, when they say a person should not be choosy, that would be when the person is demanding for something better and more expensive.

In this instance, the people want the less expensive yet more effective product and this regime wants the more expensive, less effective one.

Kasi si Roque, ilulusot hanggat kaya ilusot..saan kaya kumukuha ng kapal ng mukha yan tao na yan. Halata Sobra na mas pabor sila sa gawang China dahil siguro may kickback sa Sinovac.

Kasi, merong kumita! Putang inang Korapsyon sa Pilipinas, sukdulan na!

Pumili kayo ng less effective, more dangerous, and lastly more expensive. Hindi nga kayo pihikan, hindi naman kayo praktikal. If you're talking about quantity, sinovac should be the last choice. Wala talagang reason to choose Sinovac, so anong pinagsasasabi mo?

Yung totoo, Roque. Mukhang nakatali na ang gobyerno sa China. Malamang ang laki ng utang ni Duterte kung pwede lang palitan na niya apelyido niya o baka nauna na yung citizenship niya!

Civil. Liberty. I should have a choice. No one should take it away from me. At hindi dahil pihikan ako. Pero dahil sa hindi iniisip ng gobyerno ang makakabuti sa akin. I have a right to protect myself. Even from the government.

We cannot compromise when it comes to health! Bakit ninyo ipinagpipilitan ang galing sa China eh ang dami negative news about it!

Pera ng taumbayan ang ginamit para mabili yan o kung inutang man kami din ang magbabayad kaya may karapatan kaming mamili.

With Roque as the ubiquitous woofer of lies & stupidity, Debold Mananita Sinas as the epitome of arrogance, & now, just in, Vitaliano Aguirre as the new Commissioner of Napolcom, ensuring that every Police Officer is 'above' the Law - if not THE Law, what else can you expect of Duterte's government?

But wait, there's more:

1. Koko Pimentel's quarantine breach

2. Mass gatherings c/o Mocha Uson, Manny Pacquiao, Harry Roque

3. Duque's incompetence as head of DOH

4. P15B PhilHealth corruption

5. Smuggled & Illegal Vaccines

6. Alan Peter Cayetano's unliquidated P2B SEA Games funds

HUWAG KALIMUTAN.
