Mayor Zamora volunteers to get 1st COVID vaccine jab in San Juan
San Juan City has initiated a house-to-house campaign to boost its COVID-19 vaccination drive, with teams visiting homes to help residents register on the spot using tablets and Wi-Fi.
This initiative aims to remove barriers such as lack of internet access, ensuring broader opportunities for registration.
Mayor Francis Zamora volunteered to be the first person in the city to receive the COVID-19 vaccine to encourage constituents and allay fears.
As of February 10, approximately 18,602 individuals, or 15 percent of the city's population, have registered for the vaccination program, which is still far from the 70% target for herd immunity.
