THE government will ensure the vaccination of all adult Filipinos population against Covid-19, vaccine czar Carlito Galvez Jr. assured the public on Wednesday amid claims of its supposed inaction on tripartite agreements to procure the vaccines.
Galvez, who is also the chief implementer of the National Task Force Against Covid-19, gave the assurance after Senate Majority Leader Juan Miguel Zubiri sought to look into the hanging requests for vaccine procurement of 42 local government units (LGUs) and about 300 private companies.
