Bataan offers rice incentive for vax recipients

The provincial government of Bataan is offering five kilograms of rice as an incentive for individuals who will get vaccinated against COVID-19 during the three-day national vaccination drive from November 29 to December 1.

This "Handog sa Bakunadong Bataeño" program applies to those receiving their first dose, second dose, or a booster shot at any vaccination site within the province, including mobile "Vax on Wheels" units.

The initiative is in solidarity with the Department of Health's "Bayanihan, Bakunahan" program, aiming to ensure long-term protection for residents and further reduce COVID-19 cases in Bataan.

Residents are queuing at inoculation sites across the province, including temporary ones in barangays and regular vaccination centers.

The provincial government aims to achieve a high vaccination rate, crucial for reopening businesses and revitalizing the local economy.
