COVID-19 Crisis: Vaccination of A4 category patients resumes in Muntinlupa City

Shortly after the City Government of Muntinlupa confirmed that over 100,000 residents have been vaccinated with their first dose, it has officially resumed the vaccination of patients under the A4 category while also allowing walk-ins.

To put things in perspective, posted below is an excerpt from the Manila Bulletin news report. Some parts in boldface…

The Muntinlupa City government on Tuesday has resumed the vaccination of people belonging to the A4 priority group, or essential workers, and is now allowing walk-ins subject to the availability of spare vaccines.

According to the Muntinlupa City COVID-19 Vaccination Program (MunCoVac), starting June 22, the vaccination sites at SM Center Muntinlupa in Brgy. Tunasan and Ayala Malls South Park in Brgy. Alabang will accommodate A1 (health workers), A2 (senior citizens), A3 (persons with comorbidities) and A5 (poor population) priority groups.

For A4, they will be vaccinated at the Festival Mall upper ground floor covered parking area, New Cupang Health Center and Sucat covered court.

At the vaccination site at De La Salle Santiago Zobel School inside the Ayala Alabang Village, groups that will be vaccinated are A1, A2, A3 and A4. No vaccination will be held at the Poblacion Elementary School located at Southville 3 housing project in Brgy. Poblacion.

In addition, MunCoVac has announced that “walk-ins will only be accommodated if there are spare vaccines due to no-shows,” referring to people who have received their vaccination schedule but do not show up at the vaccination site.

Before Tuesday, the Muntinlupa City government vaccinated A1, A2, A3 and A5 using the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine donated by the national government that came from the COVAX facility.

For Muntinlupa City residents who have not yet registered for the free COVID-19 vaccines, learn the ways to get registered right here. If you are ready to register yourself online, click https://vaccine.muntinlupacity.gov.ph/muncovac/

Let me end this piece by asking you readers: Are you a Muntinlupa City resident who has yet to get vaccinated? Do you remember what your category was when you registered? Now that walk-ins are allowed, do you plan to walk in for the free vaccine?

To put things in perspective, the Safety Seal is an indication that the establishment is compliant in terms of the standard safety protocols including the use of StaySafe.ph app. This is a voluntary inspection coordinated with the LGU or DTI. In essence, the Alabang Town Center has been recognized as a safe place for customers and visitors.

Standing (L to R) were Director Bernadette Ferino of DILG, Muntinlupa; Ayala Malls, Inc. president Christopher Maglanoc; Francisco Cruz, Assistant Secretary for DILG Plans and Programs; Muntinlupa City Mayor Jaime Fresnedi; Congressman Ruffy Biazon; Dindo Fernando, VP & Head of External Affairs, Ayala Land Inc.; and Veronica Arcenas, Ayala Land Malls, Inc.
