Published December 5, 2017 Updated December 5, 2017 07:43pm

"Like many others in the Philippines, WHO is awaiting the expert analysis of new data and advice about its implications for use of the vaccine. In the meantime, WHO supports the Philippines Department of Health's (DOH) decision to suspend the ongoing vaccination programme until more information is available.

This is appropriate in the circumstances," it said.
