10 local government units (LGUs) of La Union secured 1 Million-worth of programs, projects and activities and 50,000 worth of Personal Protective Equipment (PPEs) for their frontliners while a total of 60 kaprobinsiaan received a P5,000-worth of food packs as part of the Provincial Government of La Union (PGLU) Vaccination Incentives Program (VIP).
The PGLU VIP aims to increase the vaccination statistics in the province by incentivising LGUs with at least 80% of their target population inoculated until December 8, 2021. Aside from the LGUs, individual winners composed of 20 Senior Citizens, 20 from the General Public, and 20 from the 12-17 Age Group also won P5,000 worth of food packs.
LGUs receiving the 1 Million-worth of programs, projects and activities and 50,000 worth of PPEs are Agoo, Bacnotan, Balaoan, Bangar, Burgos, Caba, City of San Fernando, San Juan, Sudipen, and Tubao. They will be preparing projects proposals aligned with the Stronger La Union Strategy for the approval and funding of the PGLU.
Individual winners drawn from all vaccinated kaprobinsiaan who have received their first dose on or before December 8, 2021 have also started claiming their box of prizes. As of January 11, 2022, the province is at 77.02% to herd immunity for fully vaccinated and 90.75% for partially vaccinated.
With the collaboration of the PGLU and all component LGUs and the consistent participation of kaprobinsiaan and other stakeholders, herd immunity is within reach and we shall all together build a Stronger La Union, a province worth living in.
