    VERA FILES FACT CHECK: FB pages, groups spread FAKE Robredo quote card on face shields

    By VERA Files  |  Nov 12, 2021 10:19 AM

    Robredo said no such thing. This post followed her statement in a media briefing where she said: “Sa totoo lang, medyo naasiwa ako na, at this point, issue pa rin sa atin ang face shield. Imbes sana na napagkakagastusan natin ‘yon, idagdag nalang natin sa pondo sa bakuna.” (To be honest, I’m annoyed that the face shield [mandate] is still an issue for us. Instead of buying more, we should increase our funds for the vaccine).
