Rodrigo “Rigo” Duterte II reiterated his call to Dabawenyos to get vaccinated to prevent them from getting infected with severe Covid-19 as the virus is still around.
Rigo, grandson, and namesake of former president Rodrigo Duterte and son of Davao City First District Representative Paolo “Pulong” Duterte, said that even though the restrictions have been lifted, everyone still needs to be protected through vaccination.
“Ang pagpabakuna against Covid-19 is a safer, more reliable way para ma-protektahan ta labi na ang atong pamilya ug mga anak nga magkasakit ug Covid-19,” he said.
Rigo urged Dabawenyos as vaccination resumes at People’s Park.
The Davao City Covid-19 Task Force announced that Dabawenyos may now avail of their Covid-19 vaccinations at the People’s Park from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. from Monday to Friday.
Davao City Covid-19 Task Force spokesperson Dr. Michelle Schlosser announced over Davao City Disaster Radio (DCDR) the Covid-19 vaccination teams at People’s Park cater to the primary two-dose series, booster shots, and missed doses for the pediatric population five to 17 years old and adults 18 and above.
Schlosser reiterated that vaccination is the only way to prevent acquiring the severity of the disease that may result in a Covid-19 death.
She reported that from January 16 to 22, 2023, Davao City logged a total of 67 active cases with four deaths, who were mostly unvaccinated.
