ADVERTISEMENT“Ang pananaw po namin, sa universal health care, importante ho ang pera, kalahati lang ho ng picture,” Dans said during an online press conference organized by the COVID-19 Action Network Philippines. (When we look at implementing universal health care, funding is important, but it is only half of the picture.)

Ubial also called for the implementation of the health care law right away, saying that it was best to start it right in the middle of a pandemic. “Universal health care is not a destination, it’s a journey,” she said.
