May 5,560,029 Pinoy na ang fully vaccinated laban sa COVID-19, ayon sa National Task Force (NTF) Against COVID-19, habang umabot naman sa 10,866,238 ang nakatanggap na ng unang dose ng COVID-19 vaccine.
Pahayag ni NTF Against Covid-19 Chief Implementer and Vaccine Czar Secretary Carlito G. Galvez, Jr., “We are now past the crawl and walk stages, as we gradually run towards our goal of inoculating half a million Filipinos per day this quarter. This is a preview of better things to come in the remaining six months of 2021.
“Despite the inclement weather, our implementing units have remained resilient and are committed to inoculating more Filipinos. We are grateful to all frontliners in the government and the private sector who continue to serve the public despite the many challenges we continue to face.”
Samantala, patuloy na nananawagan si Galvez sa publiko na sumunod sa mga ipinatutupad na health protocols dahil sa banta ng COVID-19 Delta variant.
Saad ni Galvez, “The best way to stop and limit the spread of the Delta variant, along with getting the vaccine, is diligently complying with minimum public health standards – mask, hugas, iwas. If possible, put on double masks. We need to be more conscious because the virus continues to mutate. Kailangang mas paigtingin pa natin ang ating pagprotekta sa ating mga sarili.”
