Satellite Covid-19 vax sites to be launched in San Juan

Published Sep 6, 2022 04:30 pm

The San Juan City local government announced that it will launch satellite Covid-19 vaccination sites in all barangays on Wednesday, Sept. 7, as part of its efforts to curb the spread of disease and its more contagious Omicron subvariants.

According to San Juan City Mayor Francis Zamora, the city government will set up vaccination sites in all barangay halls which will offer primary and booster shots to all San Juaneños.

The local government made the move to bring San Juan's vaccination program to more people, especially to those who are incapable of going to the primary vaccination sites, such as persons with disabilities and senior citizens.

The primary and first booster shot are open to residents aged five and above who are qualified to be inoculated, while the second booster shot is available for those who are included in the A1 (Frontline Medical Workers), A2 (Senior Citizens), A3 (Persons with Comorbidities) categories, and those who are aged 50 and above.

Zamora reminded the vaccinees to bring their vaccination card and a valid ID.

He added that all satellite vaccination sites are open from 8:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.

The schedule of vaccinations are as follows:

In the month of August, the city government also opened satellite Covid-19 vaccination sites in all 13 public schools to ensure that students and residents are protected against the virus amid the reopening of face-to-face classes.

“San Juan City continues to vaccinate our population against Covid-19 to make sure our constituents are protected against the virus. We are now administering booster shots to qualified populations and will also give primary series to those who recently qualified, like our children,” Zamora said.

“The vaccination of children is not compulsory. However, we want to encourage the parents to have their kids vaccinated against Covid-19 so they are protected against the ill effects of the virus. To make sure the vaccine is accessible, we will set up satellite Covid-19 vaccination sites in all our public schools in the city,” he added.
