Philippines bans unvaccinated from public transport
The Philippines will push through with its plan next week to ban from public transportation people who are not vaccinated against COVID-19, according to officials.
The ban applies to the notoriously congested capital region of about 13 million people, where most new cases have emerged, but has faced stiff opposition from the country’s human rights commission, which called it restrictive and discriminatory.
But the transport ministry said there would be no stopping the plan, which was necessary to curb the spread and prevent the healthcare system from getting overwhelmed.
