This is what CSBT Manager Carmen Quijano told SunStar Cebu on Sunday, Jan. 30, 2022.
Quijano said a vaccination area can be installed inside the terminal as long as there is approval from Gov. Gwendolyn Garcia.
The CSBT is under the management of the Cebu Provincial Government.
The Office of the Presidential Assistant for the Visayas, Department of Health Central Visayas, Project Balik Buhay, Land Transportation Office and the Land Transportation Franchising and Regulatory Board conducted a meeting last Jan. 17 to discuss the possibility of creating a vaccination site inside transport terminals in Cebu.
According to Quijano, the terminal can accommodate people who want to be inoculated with the Covid-19 vaccine since there are fewer passengers due to the restrictions of the pandemic.
However, Quijano said there are still minor repairs needed for the facility since it was damaged during the onslaught of Typhoon Odette (Rai) on Dec. 16, 2021.
Quijano added that engineers from the provincial government have already assessed the damage but there are areas in the terminal that are feasible for the proposed vaccination initiative.
