Madam:
We are writing this letter in response to the Division Memorandum No. 95, S. 2022,
issued on June 10, 2022. We would like to impart to our institution, the provision of
Republic Act 11525 Section 12, stating that “vaccinated individuals are not considered
immune from Covid-19”. And under Section 1 of Bill of rights, we are claiming our right
for equal protection of the laws.
2. Our life shall be put to risk of possible untoward incident which may happen during
our travel just to get the Antigen/RT-PCR test twice a month.
“Section 32. Penal Provision. A person who shall willfully interfere with, restrain
or coerce any teacher in the exercise of his rights guaranteed by this Act or
who shall in any other manner commit any act to defeat any of the provisions
of this Act shall, upon conviction be punished by a fine of not less than one
thousand pesos, or by imprisonment, in the discretion of the court.”
“If the offender is a public official, the court shall order his dismissal from the
Government service.”
4. RT-PCR/ Antigen Testing is an intrusive, violative of Constitutional provision on
unreasonable searches and seizures, discriminatory and violative of equal protection
clause, dangerous as these tests may break the blood brain barrier, especially if
done regularly. There are also reports that these tests may be used in harvesting
DNA samples and may be used to put vaccines in the body. There has been news
on oral vaccines, so this idea is not farfetched.
5. The RT-PCR test has already been discontinued by the US CDC because it could not
distinguish between flu and covid. In the case of the antigen test, there are poison
control issues warning on COVID-19 antigen tests.
When the government has invoked the exercise of Police power to protect the right to
health, it should also be noted that the exercise of police power must employ
reasonable means toward a reasonable end, it must be exercised without grave abuse
of discretion, and must use means that are least restrictive of fundamental
Constitutional rights.
We recognize the fact that you are just following the instruction given to you by the
higher office, we would like to plead with you, to understand that we are just protecting
ourselves from any harm by complying to any discriminatory administrative or executive
acts, orders and regulations which are contrary to the laws and constitution based on
the Article VII of the Civil Code of the Philippines, the Nuremberg Code of 1947 and the
1987 Philippine Constitution.
We are putting our humble request to you, Ma’am, in writing, to not to submit
respectfully to the RT-PCR/Antigen Testing, not unless we manifest COVID-19
symptoms.
Thank you so much for your time to ponder on this humble letter. We would like to end
this letter with a quote from St. Padre Pio, “Walk the way of the Lord in simplicity: do not
torment your spirit. Speak the truth, always the truth.”
