MAYNILA— Dr. Jolly Vanessa Yago, an emergency health frontliner, is a COVID-19 survivor along with her husband.She now heads the Dr.

Jose Fabella Memorial Hospital vaccination program, and cannot stress enough the importance of receiving the vaccine against the coronavirus."Sa akin po, personally, since I’ve experienced na po na magkaroon ng COVID, so I know how it feels na you have fear for your family po and kahit 'yung mga co-workers, mga kasama mo, na ma-expose doon sa virus," Yago said.

"50 percent pa lang po kami ngayon, which I think is very representative even in all our citizenry, kasi nga 'yung pag-aalinlangan na hindi pa siya well-tested. But we are convincing our employees that this is the best way to achieve herd immunity at saka para naman po maging safe hindi lamang kami kundi pati 'yung mga mahal namin sa buhay," she said.

A final counselling session will be done at the pre-vaccination area, and vital signs will be taken thereafter at the screening station.
