MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – Philippine Health Secretary Francisco Duque “dropped the ball” by failing to submit a confidentiality agreement that would have secured some 10 million doses of Pfizer’s Covid-19 vaccine.

This was disclosed Wednesday by Senator Panfilo Lacson who lamented the Philippines’ missing out on a chance to procure the vaccine.

If this is a case of a key player dropping the ball, shouldn’t the coach, i.e., President Rodrigo Duterte, drop this player from his team?
