PUBLIC Attorney's Office (PAO) Chief Persida Rueda-Acosta on Tuesday welcomed President Ferdinand Marcos Jr.'s designation of Dr. Teodoro 'Ted' Herbosa as the new secretary of the Department of Health (DoH).

'Dr. Ted Herbosa is okay. We at PAO welcome his appointment as the new DoH head,' Rueda-Acosta told The Manila Times.PAO has been at odds with DoH, especially when now Iloilo Rep. Janette Garin and Francisco Duque 3rd were its former secretaries as they were both respondents in the Dengvaxia and Covid-19 cases respectively.The agency has been assisting the parents of over 160 schoolchildren, whose deaths were linked to the controversial anti-dengue vaccine.

The chief public attorney also serves as principal counsel for a group of parents who filed a petition before the Quezon City-Regional Trial Court seeking to stop the Covid-19 vaccination for children 5-11 years old, saying it was unconstitutional and the vaccines were already obsolete.The respondents in the petition were Duque and former acting DoH chief Maria Rosario Vergeire.Both cases are on trial.
