Pharmally Pharmaceutical Corp. became involved in a scandal over allegations of overpriced medical supplies it supplied to the government for the latter's response to the COVID-19 pandemic in the Philippines. The Blue Ribbon Committee of the Senate of the Philippines launched an investigation into the matter and uncovered other issues, such as the supplied face shields' alleged substandard quality and how the company was able to secure a billions of pesos worth contract despite being founded only in 2019 with a small paid-up capital.
