MANILA, Philippines — The Department of the Interior and Local Government urged 42,046 barangays nationwide to encourage their constituents who are unvaccinated, not fully vaccinated and those with no booster shots to avail of jabs vs COVID-19 in the conduct of Barangay Assembly Days.

 

In a statement, Interior Secretary Benhur Abalos said that barangays are required to conduct Barangay Assembly Days for the second semester of 2022 to be held on any of the Saturdays or Sundays of October. These days should be used to discuss the benefits of getting boosted and vaccinated against COVID-19 and invite the citizens to partake in government vaccination campaigns such as PinasLakas.

 

“We call on the Punong Barangays and other officials to fulfill their mandate and conduct Barangay Assembly Days. I hope the barangays use this opportunity to talk to their constituents and encourage them to be vaccinated and boosted against COVID-19,” Abalos said. “Use this as an avenue to inform your constituents of the undertakings and accomplishments of your barangays and discuss issues and concerns and plans for the future."
