Philippine president wants short queue time at vaccination sites


MANILA, Philippines, June 1 (Philippine Inquirer/ANN): President Rodrigo Duterte urged local government units (LGUs) on Monday to use technology and more advanced measures in vaccinating people against COVID-19 to reduce queue time and the risk of exposure to the disease.

“We need to administer the vaccines quickly because we do not [want] a vaccine site to become a spreader event [...] Making them queue — that is, to make them line up — for an hour or longer exposes them, ” Duterte said.
