“Uumpisahan na po iyong mga naudlot sa Region 5, Mimaropa, 6, 7, 8, and Caraga. Baka iyong Region 7 ay hindi natin alam kung ano pa iyong mangyayari, but in Region 6, there are a few areas na hindi nagbakuna. Sa Caraga, mga dalawang areas ang hindi pa magre-resume ng bakunahan,” Cabotaje said during the Laging Handa public briefing.

“But majority will start their vaccination ngayong araw na ito.”
