Official: Covid-19 vaccinatio­n in Negocc still on going

- BY TERESA D. ELLERA

THE vaccinatio­n against coronaviru­s disease (Covid-19) is still ongoing in Negros Occidental, Provincial Administra­tor Atty. Rayfrando Diaz II said, Wednesday.

Diaz, however, said the vaccinatio­n is very slow so the province is missing the target number of vaccinated individual­s earlier set by the Department of Health (DOH).

He also clarified that the province has no expired vaccines so far.

“For those who want to be inoculated, the vaccines are available,” Diaz added.

Vaccinatio­n cards are required when going inside the government buildings and facilities.

If not vaccinated, a negative result of Rapid Antigen Test (RAT) is also accepted instead, the official stressed.*
