CAGAYAN DE ORO CITY – The local government of Iligan City has set a target of 60,000 residents for inoculation against coronavirus disease (Covid-19) during the three-day national vaccination campaign from Nov. 29 to Dec. 1. During the online program "Kapehan sa Iligan" on Sunday, Dr. Belinda Lim, chief of the City Health Office, said Iligan City needs to achieve a daily target of 20,000 jabs. "For me, this could be 25,000 daily, but in the previous weeks, we had (an average) 4,500 per day, which was lower than the 7,500 targets, that is why the lacking numbers will be added up for the upcoming vaccination rollout," she said. Lim also said in Northern Mindanao region, the Department of Health aims to administer at least 250,000 doses per day.
CEBU CITY – Cebuanos on Monday gathered in different inoculation sites to avail of coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19) jabs as the National Vaccination Days ordered by President Rodrigo Duterte started. In this city, Mayor Michael Rama said in a press briefing that medical front-liners resorted to manual operations due to the big number of residents who flocked to the 90 inoculation sites, which showed a positive response to the government’s call for vaccination against the deadly virus. “Our vaccination information management system running the PaBakunaTa.com registration portal is overwhelmed with registrants. We are confronted with massive online registrations due to the Barangayanihan Boluntaryong Bakunahan program of the President,” he said.
