Bilang ng doses ng COVID-19 vaccine na naiturok sa bansa, higit 100 milyon na
Ibinida ng Palasyo ng Malakanyang na pumalo na sa mahigit 100 milyon doses ng bakuna kontra COVID-19 ang naiturok na.
Ayon kay Cabinet Secretary at acting presidential spokesman Karlo Nograles, maituturing na vaccination milestone ito sa Pilipinas.
Ayon kay Nograles, base sa talaan ng National Vaccination Operations Center (NVOC) kahapon, December 16, 2021, nasa 100,019,137 total doses na ang naiturok mula noong March 2021.
Mahigit 43 milyon na ang fully vaccinated, o 55.78 porsyento ng target population.
Ayon pa sa ulat ng NVOC, nasa 56 milyon ang nabigyan ng first dose at 43 milyon naman ang second dose habang nasa mahigit isang milyon na ang nabigyan ng booster shots.
“We commend the Department of Health, the NVOC, the National Task Force Against COVID-19, the local government units, our private and development partners, along with our medical frontliners and volunteers, for a job well done. This is indeed a showcase of the true bayanihan spirit. Congratulations to all,” pahayag ni Nograles.
Gayunman, sinabi ni Nograles na hindi pa rin magiging kampante ang gobyerno.
“This, however, must not lull us into complacency. We will continue to ramp up our vaccination efforts and call on those unvaccinated to get their jabs as soon as possible to protect themselves, their loved ones, and their community. Also, Ligtas Christmas sa Healthy Pilipinas must serve as our guide. The coronavirus is still around with the looming threat of the Omicron variant. All must comply with the 50% indoor and 70 porsyento outdoor capacity and strictly adhere to minimum public health standards, especially those attending Simbang Gabi. Continue to wear mask in attending Simbang Gabi. Maintain 1-meter physical distancing. Avoid crowding. Practice hand hygiene,” pahayag ni Nograles.
