PCG, makikiisa sa ‘Bayanihan Bakunahan’ sa Nov. 29 hanggang Dec. 1
Makikiisa ang Philippine Coast Guard (PCG) sa national COVID-19 days ng gobyerno na “Bayanihan Bakunahan” mula November 29 hanggang December 1, 2021.
Alinsunod sa direktiba ni Transportation Secretary Art Tugade, sinabi ni PCG Commandant Leopoldo Laroya na ide-deploy ang Coast Guard land, floating, at aerial assets para mapabilis ang pagpapadala ng mga bakuna laban sa COVID-19 sa 16 rehiyon sa labas ng Metro Manila.
“As early as now, we are coordinating with the National Task Force Against COVID-19 (NTF), Department of Health (DOH), and Department of Interior and Local Government (DILG) to know how we could be of help in ensuring the successful conduct of the three-day national vaccination days towards reaching 70% population protection nationwide,” saad ni Laroya.
Dagdag nito, “We have directed our medical personnel to include doctors and 200 of our nurses to make themselves available for the said activity. Our PCG Auxiliary (PCGA) volunteers will also aid through manpower augmentation and donation of medical supplies.”
Maliban dito, itatalaga rin ang frontline personnel ng PCG districts, stations, at sub-stations sa 8,000 vaccination sites sa buong bansa.
Layon nitong mapunan ang kinakailangang logistics, safety, at security assistance sa kasagsagan ng aktibidad.
Ipinag-utos din sa PCG personnel na suportahan ang Department of Health (DOH) at mga lokal na pamahalaan para masiguro ang maayos na accommodation sa libu-libong Filipino na magpapabakuna.
“We are doing this for us to have a better Christmas. Our participation in this nationwide movement to fight the threat of the contagious virus is our gift to our kababayans this Christmas season,” ani Laroya.
Saad pa nito, “Hence, we enjoin unvaccinated Filipinos to support the ‘Bayanihan Bakunahan’ and take part in lowering the infection rate in our country. Sama-sama tayo sa tuluyang pagbangon ng bansa laban sa epektong iniwan ng COVID-19.”
