Gov't targets frontline workers inoculation in July – Manila Bulletin

The government is needing extra months before it can start the vaccination of frontline workers, as the National Economic and Development Authority (NEDA) said that scarcity of the current supply continues to affect inoculation efforts.
On Tuesday, April 20, NEDA recommended the inclusion of around 12.8 million frontline workers from nine industries to the A4 priority group.
However, Socioeconomic Planning Undersecretary Rosemarie G. Edillon said their actual inoculation is targeted to begin in July.
“We will continue to prioritize vaccinations for groups A1, A2, and A3. The government targets to begin the vaccination of the A4 priority group in July, as the vaccination of the first three groups nears completion,” Edillon said.
