The Advocacy, Demand Generation, and Social Mobilization Group (ADGSMG) of the CoViD-19 Vaccination Program Task Force (CVP-TF) in partnership with the La Union Medical Society (LUMS) and the Burgos Municipal Health Office (MHO) converges with the Barangay Health Workers (BHWs) of the Municipality of Burgos to increase the vaccine uptake in the uplands.
The ADGSMG held a Focus Group Discussion (FGD) with the BHWs of the twelve (12) barangays in Burgos today, May 21, 2021. The goal of the FGD is to empower our health leaders to make informed decisions and educate them about the CoViD-19 vaccines so they can empower the Kaprobinsiaan in every barangay.
To directly answer the queries of the BHWs, the ADGSMG also invited LUMS Incoming President Dr. Guilvic Tirso Aspiras. Dr. Aspiras emphasized the importance of getting vaccinated to protect the entire community.
As of May 20, 2021, 22,210 individuals from Priority Groups A1 and A2 have received their first dose of CoViD-19 vaccine in the Province of La Union.
The CVP-TF continues to champion data-driven approaches in communicating the CoViD-19 Vaccination Program - Bakuna Muna.
