Recently in the progressive City of Muntinlupa, the City Government officially launched the local rollout of bivalent COVID-19 vaccines starting with the health workers, according to a Manila Bulletin news report.
To put things in perspective, posted below is the excerpt from the Manila Bulletin news report. Some parts in boldface…
The Muntinlupa City government rolled out the administration of the Bivalent Covid-19 vaccine on health workers on June 23.
Lithuania donated to the Philippines the Covid-19 Vaccine Pfizer Bivalent or the Tozinameran + Famtozinameran (Comimaty Original/Omicron BA.4-5).
The Department of Health (DOH) allocated 726 vials or 4,356 doses for health care workers in Muntinlupa.
The city-run Ospital ng Muntinlupa (OsMun) got an allocation of 540 doses while the Research Institute for Tropical Medicine had 1,524 doses intended for A1 (health workers) group.
A total of 36 healthcare workers were already vaccinated at OsMun as of this writing.
Under a DOH memorandum issued in March, the Bivalent Covid-19 vaccines will be administered as a third booster shot to people aged at least 18 belonging to priority groups healthcare workers (A1) and senior citizens (A2).
They can get the Bivalent vaccine at least four to six months after getting their second booster shot.
