And why would they trust what they're getting jabbed with? The last vax I got and every expat in the PH should get is Hep B. I got the required doses at a reputable medical clinic. A few years later I had blood work done by a doctor in a hospital, I noticed the negative Hep B antibody test. Shocked, I explained to the doctor. She was not shocked, or even surprised at this "vaccine scam". So she gave me doses of the actual vaccine, and then the antibodies later showed up on the test. Or did she scam you? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twice I've had doctors try to scam not me but my partner with blood results. The figures are typed in manually. Both times they tried to sell medication and just two weeks ago they tried to convince my partner she needed an IV antibiotic costing just under 5k peso. All she had was a flare up of what looked like acne so I sent her just to give her peace of mind. The blood test only cost about 600 peso so we went elsewhere for a second opinion and surprise, surprise everything was within limits. Previous to that she had returned with a bag of vitamins and minerals after a previous blood test and again her bloods were perfect. The doctor sold them on the pretext she needed them to stay healthy. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Philippine people have, in the past, received their best government by not heeding the regime in power. Here is something worth researching if you do not already know it: "The People Power Revolution (also known as the EDSA Revolution and the Philippine Revolution of 1986) was a series of popular demonstrations in the Philippines that began in 1983 and culminated in 1986. The methods used amounted to a sustained campaign of civil resistance against regime violence and electoral fraud." 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then underreported death totals by 50%. Maybe Duterte isn't so bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's rein it in just a bit and keep other countries out of the discussion unless really applicable and not political. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The peoples congress is elected and they elect the leader. In the USA, the electoral college decides the leader. Just because you would like something to be true and assert it, won't make it so.
