457 college students in City San Fernando inoculated vs COVID-19

“The approach of CHED is not to require it, it is to convince and incentivize vaccination. It is easier for this batch now because there are available vaccines. There should be no reason why students can’t get vaccinated. But is it a required mandate? It is not, but we encourage them,” the city government quoted De Vera as saying.

The city government said Our Lady of Fatima University was among the schools to receive a certificate of authority from CHED to conduct face-to-face classes for medicine and allied medical degree programs. It said the university is applying for face-to-face classes for its other degree programs after Malacañang allowed it for engineering and technology, hotel and restaurant management, tourism, marine engineering, and marine transportation programs.

On Friday, the capital city registered 21 new COVID-19 cases, 165 recoveries and a single death. Its has 911 active cases.Subscribe to our daily newsletter
