City’s COVID-19 Task Force spokesperson Dr. Michelle Schlosser said there are health district offices open for the booster dose for A-2 or the senior citizens.
She, however, clarified that booster doses for this sector are already included in limited sites due to space to cater to many individuals.
She said it will be carefully planned to assign separate lanes for individuals getting boosters, anti-Covid pediatric vaccines, and individuals for first and second doses.
Senior citizens only need to present their vaccination card or Vaccination Certificate or VaxCert to avail the booster dose at the most convenient site where boosters are provided and open for walk-in.
Those who lost their vaccination card and do not have VaxCert yet can request a copy of their vaccination record at the Vaccination Cluster Office at the Teen Center located near People’s Park.
“There is a need to carefully plan the activity because there will be separate lanes for booster dose, for pediatric, for different for adult individuals for the first and second doses. But we already have some hubs that offer booster doses for senior citizens,” Schlosser said.
All the vaccination hubs in the city are open. It will serve all priority groups from A-1 to A-5, and the pediatric patients, Schlosser said.
The city will also open the drive-thru vaccination hubs throughout the Bayanihan Bakunahan.
Mayor Sara Duterte, earlier said that the city will do its best to cover the target number of herd immunity by the year-end.
The latest data shows the city has fully vaccinated a total of 1,171,050 Dabawenyos.
A total of 10,345 individuals were also given their booster shots.
