Mayor Isko suggests use of toll booths for drive-thru booster vaccinations
Manila Mayor and presidential aspirant Isko Moreno proposed to the national government to utilize toll booths as drive-thru vaccination sites to accelerate COVID-19 booster shot administration.
Moreno's suggestion aims to accommodate the large number of individuals, including non-residents of Manila, who are seeking vaccination services in the city.
He specifically mentioned the possibility of collaborating with toll road operators, potentially engaging with figures like Manny Pangilinan or Ramon Ang, to dedicate a lane at toll gates for booster vaccinations.
This initiative stems from Moreno's observation of many vaccinated individuals coming from distant provinces within Luzon, highlighting the need for more accessible vaccination points.
