NTF visits BARMM to boost vax drive

The National Task Force (NTF) Against COVID-19 plans to visit the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (BARMM) and other areas with low vaccination coverage to speed up the vaccine drive.

Dr. Ted Herbosa, NTF medical adviser, stated that Secretary Carlito Galvez Jr., the vaccine czar, will check on existing problems hindering vaccination progress in these regions and encourage residents to get vaccinated.

Herbosa noted that while many provinces have reached a 70% vaccination rate, there are still areas with lower coverage that need improvement.
