Philippines - Local campaigns shouldn’t stall vaccination drive, says top health executive

MANILA, March 20 (Phiippines Daily Inquirer/ANN): Health authorities have drawn up new plans to ensure that the Covid-19 vaccination drive would continue as they expect it to slow down once the election campaigns for local posts start next week.

Dr. Kezia Rosario, co-leader of the National Vaccination Operations Center (NVOC), said there should be no letup in the mass inoculation even during the election period leading to the May 9 polls to prevent coronavirus infections from increasing.
