MANILA, Philippines — Filipino workers vaccinated with CoronaVac, made by China’s Sinovac, are required to undergo swabbing and quarantine upon arrival in Saudi Arabia.

In a radio interview yesterday, Labor Secretary Silvestre Bello III yesterday said he is set to discuss the issue with the Saudi embassy.

“It was accepted but still needs to go through quarantine and also swab (RT-PCR), unlike Pfizer where you can go straight in,” Bello disclosed in Filipino.

Bello said he will ask the Saudi government not to require overseas Filipino workers (OFWs) who have already been vaccinated to undergo swab and quarantine anymore.
