INDANG, Cavite - The vaccination program against COVID-19 was halted in Indang town due to a lack of supplies from the Department of Health (DOH).

According to the Indang Rural Health Unit, there is no schedule for the second dose of vaccine in their town while they await new government allocations.



“Ipinababatid po namin na wala po muna tayong schedule ng second dose sa kadahilanan na wala pa pong dumarating na bakuna mula sa Central Office ng Department of Health. Mangyaring maghintay po tayo ng abiso mula sa mga BHW ng bawat barangay para sa schedule ng second dose,” Indang RHU said in a statement.

Indang RHU also promised to make an announcement as soon as another batch of vaccine is available for the people of their town.



“Ginagarantiya po namin na kapag may dumating na bakuna ay agad namin na ipapaalam sa inyo at iaayos po namin ang schedule upang mabigyan agad ang mga nakaschedule para sa second dose.”

Meanwhile, Imus Mayor Emmanuel Maliksi called on the government and DOH last week to continue providing vaccine allocation in their city because they had run out of new supplies.



He said, please do not miss the opportunity that many people want to be vaccinated. (with reports from Indang Rural Health Unit)
