DAVAO CITY – Some frontline health workers at the major drive-thru vaccination hubs in Davao City have been infected with coronavirus disease just as the city ramps up efforts to immunize more people against the infection.
Dr. Michelle Schlosser, spokesperson for the Davao City COVID-19 Task Force, told Davao City Disaster Radio on Wednesday that the local government recorded 22 personnel assigned at the drive-thru vaccination hubs at People’s Park and at Davao Crocodile Park have been put in isolation after testing positive for COVID-19.
She told the public not to worry about getting vaccinated as the local authorities ensured that the substitute health workers are cleared of the infection after having undergone the reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction test. “We are doing that and we will be doing that in case there will be more vaccination hubs contaminated. We continue to encourage the public to get vaccinated and get booster shots. We are trying to beat the time because when it comes to COVID-19, time really matters,” Schlosser added.
