IATF: Fully vaxxed Pinoys can travel without swab test results

The Inter-Agency Task Force for the Management of Emerging Infectious Diseases (IATF-EID) has released new protocols allowing fully vaccinated individuals to travel within the Philippines without presenting swab test results.

Philippine National Police Chief Gen. Guillermo Eleazar warned that fake vaccination cards may be used by individuals taking advantage of eased travel rules and urged police to coordinate with local government units to prevent this.

A fully vaccinated individual is defined as someone who has completed their vaccine regimen at least two weeks prior, using vaccines authorized under the Philippine Food and Drug Administration or WHO Emergency Use Listing.
