The government needs to embark on a big push to ramp up the country’s vaccination against COVID-19 as quarantine restrictions ease, some face-to-face classes resume and economic activities increase.
An expansive vaccination program will not only save lives, but also help pave the way for the reduction of lockdown measures, thereby boosting jobs and growth.
The thrust now is to go full throttle in the campaign for our people to get the shot that is free and widely accessible.
The people expect concerned agencies and local government units to heighten efforts to help vaccinate those who are under-reached and under-served communities that need assistance, even as they continue to address the hesitancy of others.
Our people must feel the seamless care of our health system wherever they may want to seek the vaccine to protect themselves.
