MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – After touting the impending availability of a Russian vaccine against Covid-19, the Philippines’ Inter-Agency Task Force (IATF) on Emerging Infectious Diseases today announced that the sought-after shot to prevent coronavirus infection could actually be found and mass-produced in the country.

”We may have one for the Guinness Book of World Records,” Presidential Spokesperson Harry Roque said today.

Secret clinical trials have been going in at the University of the Philippines in Diliman, Quezon City, exploring the safety and efficacy of a locally-produced Vetsin  (Monosodium Glutamate, or MSG) in preventing infection with Covid-19.

It all began with previous suggestions that gargling with warm water and salt as well as resorting to “tuob” (inhalation of steam from hot water and salt) could prevent Covid infection. (MSG contains a significant amount of salt).

IATF said that the local Food and Drug Administration could approve the new, and possibly the very first, vaccine by the middle of September. And did we already mention inexpensive?

We heal as one.  Vetsin for Covid-19  coming soon to a sari-sari store near you!
