According to DOH Secretary Francisco Duque III, most local government units are already well-prepared for the arrival of the COVID-19 vaccines in the country.
Duque graded the LGUs readiness and preparedness to receive the vaccines with “more than satisfactory if not close to excellent.”
“The level of preparation reflects the commitment, reflects the sincerity, the desire to skillfully executed the plan and the evidence is there,” Duque said on Saturday at the sideline interviews during his visit to the Navotas Polytechnic College in Navotas City.
Duque commended the city government’s efforts to respond to the public health crisis as it laid down its local immunization plan for COVID-19.
The DOH Secretary said that “Navotas City is really worth acknowledging and recognizing because of its success in its Covid-19 pandemic response. This is not empty words and I say this not coming from empty space but I’m saying this because the numbers reveal for themselves and reflect the effectiveness, commitment, and dedication of the city government of Navotas in leading its people towards an absolutely effective response to Covid-19 pandemic.”
