This why the brother of Mayor Vico Sotto has not yet received the vaccine against COVID-19.
VICO SOTTO – The brother of Pasig City Mayor Vico Sotto reveals the reason why he and his wife have not gotten the vaccination yet.
“Should i skip the line cause my brother is a Mayor?” says LA Mumar in a Twitter post referring to his brother Vico Sotto who is currently the Mayor of Pasig City. As much as we’re all aware, some of the prominent personalities who already got the jab were criticized in the country for skipping the queue on the vaccines. Meanwhile, some were questioned why they do not take advantage of their privileges just like the brother of Mayor Sotto.

In a rare case talking about politics, he answered the queries about not having the vaccine yet despite her brother being in the position. He said, “My mom didn’t skip the line, Vico didn’t skip the line. Why would I?”
The Ateneo women’s basketball coach said that even though it’s a matter of life and death, in such a difficult situation, it is still important to uphold your values and choose to do what is right. He added that his three boys are watching him and there are people around him and God who can also see what he does. He stated, “Shouldn’t we hold on to our values more when things are difficult? What will I tell my children? It’s ok to do something illegal because it’s convenient?”
He believes that if only everyone is doing their part for the sake of the country, there will be hope – “One person, one family at a time.”

And here are some comments from his post:
Thank you po sa explaination kala namin unchristian ang magtanong
This is fantastic! What a great example.. Praying that others get this revelation, even for the “little things”.
Dun ako pinakana-touch sa “my 3 boys are watching me”. Thank you for the effort to raise good men.
On the other hand, the Pasig Mayor expressed his frustrations previously about “butt vaccination” where a couple of pictures have been sent to him. He requested for the people to stop sending him such photos while he sees no problem about getting the coronavirus shot in the particular area and happy for them at the same time because they are finally protected. He pleaded, “Ngayon, okay lang naman na mabakunahan sa pwet, normal ‘yan, medikal naman ang usapan pero pakiusap ‘wag niyo na po isend sa akin.”
LA is Coney Reyes‘ son with ex-husband and late PBA player Larry Mumar while Vico is her youngest with Vic Sotto.
