“Sa kasalukuyan, patuloy ang aming pakikipag-ugnayan sa Astra Zeneca. Naglaan po tayo ng PHP750 Million para sa bakuna ng mahigit sa 1,500,000 na Kabiteño para sa lalong madaling panahon. Ito po ay para sa edad 18-59 years old,” he said.
“Patuloy po tayong naghihintay sa tugon ng Moderna at Pfizer para sa mga Senior Citizens or 60 and above,” he added.
