No walk-ins allowed in Cebu City Vax centersCEBU CITY, Philippines — The Cebu City Health Department (CHD) is appealing to the public not to go to the vaccination center when they have not received a schedule yet. Dr. Jeffrey Ibones, CHD head, said that the public had been flocking to the vaccine sites where the first dose for the A4 priority group […] Now that the mighty delta is here, please open more vaccination sites and make it 24/7. Time is of the essence. Consider this scenario. Knowing delta is already around, and sinovac isnt delta resilient, would people go to vax centers if they know it’s sinovac that will be jabbed?

You should vaccinate as many as you can to avoid a disaster with the Delta variant already here.
