“Of the total 49 deaths, 43 of these or 88 percent are unvaccinated. This is why we will make available the vaccine in our hospitals whether for COVID or non-COVID reasons. So if sila ay wala pang bakuna, pwede natin silang ma-engganyo magpabakuna ,” she said. “Kung ayaw pa rin po magpabakuna, nandiyan na nilalapit na, sinusubo na po sa kanila yung bakuna natin with the help of our hospitals and centers, ewan ko nalang po kung bakit ayaw pa magpabakuna. I do hope and pray na kaya natin ito,” she said.

Loreche said that health care workers were now getting affected by the surge brought by the Omicron variant. Hospitals are reporting that many of their staff are currently in isolation because of a rise in cases among them.
