DILG official inspects Las Pinas vaccination site

By Manila Bulletin

Department of Interior and Local Government (DILG) Undersecretary for Mindanao Affairs and Special Concerns Marjorie Jalosjos visited on Monday, June 21, a vaccination site in Las Pinas City and lauded it for a very organized rollout of vaccines to city residents.

Jalosjos visited the Las Pinas vaccination site to monitor and check the city government’s vaccination program.

She lauded the Las Pinas City government for having 18 vaccination sites that are properly managed.

Vice Mayor April Aguilar said the city is looking for more sites for vaccination if the need arises.

Aguilar said the local government is committed to achieve herd immunity through a massive vaccination program.

She bared that once the vaccines are delivered to the city, the local government will promptly schedule the vaccine rollout in the 18 vaccination sites located around the city.

She also commended medical frontliners and the staff at the vaccination sites for not taking a day off from their work due to the successive delivery of vaccines.

The vice-mayor added that Mayor Imelda Aguilar wants a fast-paced vaccination program in the city.
