The Philippines’ so called “no vax, no ride” policy, which bans people who are not fully vaccinated against COVID-19 from riding public transport in the country’s capital region, has come into effect – a move that has sparked protests from labour and human rights groups.
The restriction, which will last until at least the end of January, was an offshoot of President Rodrigo Duterte’s warning that unvaccinated Filipinos who defy orders to stay at home to ease community infections could face arrest.
