San Juan City Mayor Francis Zamora has vowed to be the first to take the AstraZeneca vaccines purchased by the city, in a bid to boost the confidence of residents in the vaccine.

“I will be the first to get the vaccine to increase the level of confidence of our constituents in the vaccine and more of them will trust the vaccine,” Zamora said Thursday.The city conducted a two-day simulation of its vaccination process on January 13 and 14 at the San Juan Gym, in the preparation for its city-wide inoculation of residents against the coronavirus disease .

The simulation seeks to work out the flow of the vaccination process of the city and address the gaps before the arrival of the vaccine. “San Juan Gym will be our main vaccination center. We chose this venue because it’s well-ventilated and big enough to accommodate hundreds of San Juaneños who already signed up to get the COVID-19 vaccine. It is also located right in the heart of the city so it’s accessible to our constituents,” said the mayor.

San Juan initially ordered 100,000 doses of COVID-19 vaccine from AstraZeneca through a tripartite agreement, which will then be supplemented by the vaccines coming from the national government.
