HOUSE Assistant Majority Leader and ACT-CIS party-list Rep. Niña Taduran backed healthcare workers in their indefatigable task in this pandemic amidst the controversy on the delivery of coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19) vaccines to patients.

Taduran said it is impossible for health care workers to deliberately fail to inject the vaccine on patients.

“Aanhin naman nila ang hindi naiturok na bakuna? Ang mga bakuna, tulad ng MRNA vaccines, kapag naihanda na siya para ma-inject, at nahaluan na ng diluting solution, sira na kapag hindi nagamit agad,” said Taduran who consulted medical experts.

“Ang iba pang bakuna, six hours lang ang shelf life kapag na-puncture na ng karayom ang vial na kinalalagyan nito,” Taduran added.

Taduran was reacting to the viral video of health care workers who allegedly failed to push the plunger thereby unable to administer the vaccine on the patient.

“Napapagod din ang mga healthcare workers at nagkakamali. Hinihikayat natin ang mga nagpapabakuna na bantayan ang ginagawa sa kanila para maitama ang mga pagkakamali,” Taduran said.
