‘FDA approval needed for COVID-19 vaccine trials,’ DOH reminds Cavite prov’l gov’t

DOH Undersecretary Maria Rosario Vergeire emphasized the importance of the regulatory process when it comes to conducting clinical trials for vaccines and medicines.

“Kailangan na re-regulate ng gobyerno para masiguro natin na magiging ligtas ito para sa ating mga kababayan. Kapag hindi po dadaan sa ganitong proseso, hindi natin masisiguro na ligtas iyan and that might cause harm to our citizens [The government needs to regulate [these initiatives] so that we can ensure that it will be safe for our countrymen. If we do not go through this process, we can not be sure that it is safe and it might cause harm to our citizens],” she added.

“Nung Sabado, I read the article at may nagbigay na ng report sa atin, so we immediately contacted the proponent, ito yung leader na magre-research, and we have discuss with him kung ano dapat ang proseso and they should notify DOH [On Saturday, I read the article and someone has reported it to us. So, we immediately contacted the proponent—the one who will lead the research—and we have discussed with him what are the processes and they should notify DOH],” said Vergeire.
