Las Piñas City has started vaccinating essential workers or those belonging in the A4 category on Tuesday, June 8 as part of efforts to make vaccines easily accessible.
This was announced by Deputy Speaker and Las Piñas Rep. Camille Villar in compliance with the Health Department’s order allowing economic “frontliners” or those working outside their homes to get vaccinated.
She said the local government is simultaneously vaccinating eligible individuals from the A1-A4 priority sectors in various vaccination sites. Villar reiterated that health protocols must still be observed.
A total of 101,059 vaccines have been administered in the city, with 70,770 individuals who have received the first dose while 30,289 are fully vaccinated, official figures show.
Villar recently unveiled a vaccine incentive program called “May Bahay sa Bakuna” to entice residents to have themselves vaccinated against COVID-19. Vaccinated individuals get a chance to win grocery items, motorcycles and a brand new house and lot.
