Vice President Leni Robredo denied being the woman in a viral photo receiving a COVID-19 vaccine in Marikina City.
Robredo stated on Facebook that the photo was not of her, responding to insinuations from administration supporters.
She identified the woman in the photo as Dr. Flordeliza Grana, a pediatric surgeon at Amang Rodriguez Memorial Medical Center.
The viral photo circulated after a pro-Duterte blogger shared it, despite clarifying it was not the Vice President.
President Duterte had previously criticized Robredo for suggesting he be vaccinated publicly to boost public confidence.
