BACOLOD CITY, March 8 (PIA) -- A strong manifestation on the safety of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccines was displayed when five medical doctors and a nurse had themselves inoculated with Sinovac vaccines that arrived in Bacolod City, March 5. Dr. Miguel Sarabia, ophthalmologist and President of Negros Occidental Medical Society (NOMS), made history as the first Bacolodnon based in Bacolod City to get the Sinovac vaccine as City Health Office-OIC Dr. Edwin Miraflor Jr administered the vaccination during a ceremonial rite held at the lobby of the Bacolod City Government Center shortly after the vaccines landed at the Bacolod-Silay Airport via a Philippine Airlines flight.
