Television host and personality Kris Aquino has received her first dose of the COVID-19 vaccine.
Aquino shared the news on Instagram, posting a photo of herself with her son Bimby, Batangas Vice Gov. Mark Leviste, and lawyer Gideon Peña.
She confirmed that both she and Gideon Peña have received their first doses.
Aquino chose the AstraZeneca vaccine, deeming it the safest option based on her doctors' advice, as she has an autoimmune disease.
Despite being vaccinated, Aquino stressed the importance of continuing to wear masks and practice other safety precautions due to the ongoing number of new COVID-19 cases.
She also encouraged Vice Gov. Leviste to get vaccinated soon for the protection of himself and his constituents, an advice he agreed to follow.
