If Filipinos want to end the inconvenience of wearing face shields and masks, about 50 million of them must first be fully inoculated against the coronavirus, meaning about half of the Philippine population should have received two doses of the vaccine against COVID-19.
Dr. Ted Herbosa, adviser to the National Task Force Against COVID-19 (NTF), said Filipinos still have a long way to go before they could get rid of those face coverings because only 3 million had been fully vaccinated as of Thursday.
“The target to advise the removal of the face mask and face shield is 50 percent of the target population, which is about 50 million, between 40 to 50 million,” Herbosa said at Thursday’s Laging Handa briefing.
