DOT says Nayong Pilipino walk-in, drive-through vaccination site a 'game-changer'; targets 12K vaccinations daily
A drive-thru COVID-19 vaccination facility is set to open soon at a Nayong Pilipino Foundation (NPF) property in Parañaque City.
The Department of Tourism (DOT) supports the Inter-Agency Task Force for the Management of Emerging Infectious Disease (IATF-EID) initiative to build this temporary vaccination center.
This public-private partnership aims to significantly boost the vaccination program by accommodating at least 12,000 individuals daily.
The National Task Force Against Covid-19 (NTF) has been authorized by the IATF-EID to finalize an agreement with NPF for the project's swift implementation.
The DOT's approval of tourism front-liners on the priority list aligns with their commitment to the vaccination drive.
The construction of this vaccination site is anticipated to be completed within 40 days.
The NPF property in Parañaque, located near NAIA Terminal 2, is a former site of a cultural theme park established in 1970.
