Duque: Govt must receive restitution if Pharmally-supplied face shields are proven tampered

The government must receive restitution if the face shields it procured from controversial firm Pharmally Pharmaceutical Corp. are proven tampered, Health Secretary Francisco Duque III said on Monday.

Duque said he ordered the Department of Health's Procurement and Supply Chain Office to re-inspect the face shields, which Pharmally official Krizle Grace Mago alleged were tampered, during the Senate Blue Ribbon Committee hearing last Sept. 24."’Yung isang taon na kanilang tinamper, magkaroon ng restitution sa gobyerno ‘yung halaga ng face shield [The one year that they tampered, the government must receive restitution for the cost of the face shields]," the Health Secretary said.

Duque explained that the foam on top of medical-grade face shields procured by the government can last up to 36 months.
