COVID-19 Mobile Testing and Vaccination units ng USAID at QC umarangkada na
Inilunsad ng lokal na pamahalaan ng Quezon City at United States Agency for International Development ang COVID-19 Mobile Testing and Vaccination Units.
Ayon kay Quezon City Mayor Joy Belmonte, 30 healthcare workers ang mangangasiwa sa mobile testing and vaccination units na ipakakalat sa anim na distrito ng lungsod.
Nabatid na mismong sina US Embassy Charge D’Affaires Heather Variava at Belmonte ang nanguna sa launching.
Suportado rin ng USAID ang Quezon City’s ProtekTODO campaign.
“We in the Quezon City government are profoundly grateful to the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) for choosing to support the city’s COVID-19 response. The deployment of these mobile COVID-19 testing and vaccination units in each of our six districts will bolster our current efforts in giving the people power to protect themselves from the deadly virus,” pahayag ni Belmonte.
Nabatid na aabot sa 12,000 COVID shots ang maidadagdag ng mobile vaccination teams kada buwan habang 5,000 naman ang madadagdag sa mobile testing mula sa kasalukuyang 20,000 testing kada buwan.
“Months into this raging pandemic, the Quezon City Government has worked tirelessly to get as many residents tested and hit our vaccination targets. Through USAID’s support, Quezon City can remain resilient and responsive in protecting the lives of many” pahayag ni Belmonte.
“We’re optimistic that this move will lead to the further decrease in the number of COVID cases and higher vaccination rate in remote barangays. The faster we can achieve population protection, will greatly benefit the city and its people. Soon we can open our economy further, and eventually give our youths more freedom of movement like the holding of face-to-face classes,” dagdag ng alkalde.
