LGUs gear up for 3-day national COVID-19 vaccination drive

Local government units (LGUs) are actively preparing for the three-day national COVID-19 vaccination drive from November 29 to December 1.

The "Bayanihan, Bakunahan" campaign, with an initial target of vaccinating 15 million Filipinos, has adjusted its goal to at least nine million for the first leg.

Over 11,000 vaccination sites and approximately 160,000 volunteers have been mobilized across the country.

LGUs like Quezon City are ready, with Quezon City targeting up to 150,000 individuals and stating that no walk-ins are allowed.

Other areas such as Marikina Sports Complex and Laoag City General Hospital are also prepared for the inoculation.

LGUs are employing various strategies to encourage vaccination, including organizing motorcades with healthcare workers.

Workers participating in the vaccination drive during these dates will not be marked as absent from work.

A second leg of the vaccination event is scheduled from December 15 to 17.
