The majority of surveyed Quezon City residents are still undecided about being vaccinated against COVID 19 because of safety and efficacy issues, according to Quezon City Mayor Joy Belmonte. | leilasinq

The survey only asked residents about their willingness to get the vaccine but did not ask them for their preferred brand as she believes people are not yet aware of the different characteristics of these brands as of now.

“It is our duty to convince our citizens that they must be vaccinated so we can achieve herd immunity. And that we can reassure them that the vaccines that we will be offering to them have undergone stringent protocols and are in fact the best vaccines that we can offer to them,” she said. The city is also in talks with other pharmaceutical companies who have gotten emergency use authorization for their vaccines from stringent regulatory authorities in other countries, said Belmonte.

Meanwhile, after securing doses of the AstraZeneca vaccine, Baguio City is eyeing the purchase of more vaccines from Russia’s Gamaleya Research Institute and the American companies Pfizer and Moderna, according to Mayor Benjamin Magalong.
