Lapu to reopen vaccination site at Hoops Dome; open new one at city auditorium

MANDAUE CITY, Cebu – The Lapu-Lapu City government will reopen its vaccination site located at the Hoops Dome in Barangay Gun-ob starting on Friday, June 18, while a new site will also be opened at the city auditorium.

Mayor Junard Chan said the city each of the two sites can accommodated 1, 200 vaccinees per day.

Chan said they target to vaccinate at least 80 percent of the Oponganons.

As of Tuesday, June 15, a total of 22, 264 city residents already received their COVID-19 shots.

“Nagsugod na usab kita sa pagsend og schedule sa kadtong mga nagparegister sa miaging mga bulan. Karon nga ubay-ubay na ang atong supply, akong isiguro nga atong ma-accomodate ang tanan,” he said.

(We already started sending vaccination schedules to those who were able to preregister last month. Now that we already received additional supply, I can give the assurance that we will be able to accommodate all [of those who preregistered].)

“Ako lang gihangyo ang inyung pasensya sa pagpaabot nga matext ang inyung schedule kay gusto kita nga mabakunahan na gyud ang tanan para mabalik na ta sa normal,” he added.

(All that I am asking is for you to wait for us to send you a text message on your schedules because we also want everyone to already be vaccinated so we could already go back to normal.)
