As of December 28, there are 106,164 total first doses administered. A total of 72,751 recipients were fully vaccinated, including those administered with the J&J Janssen single dose vaccine.
Meanwhile, a total of 1,188 second doses were administered as of December 27.

“The councilors are assigned barangays, areas of responsibility. That is the purpose of the mobile vaccination, to bring the vaccine closer, especially to those who are living in far-flung communities,” Lanticse said.
Meanwhile, Lanticse added that booster shots will soon be made available through the mobile vaccination drive but further details on schedules are yet to be announced.
“We are working on the booster shot schedule and finalizing sino ang makakakuha ng booster through the mobile vaccination,” Lanticse said.

According to Lanticse, those who are qualified for mobile vaccination booster shots are priority groups starting with A1 to A3, while walk-in appointments are yet to be confirmed.
“It’s the same with the category na finofollow. Right now we are at A1 to A3, as we are also following the same guidelines released by IATF,” he said.
