DoH suspends jab launch in NCR

DEPARTMENT of Health (DoH) Officer in Charge Maria Rosario Vergeire announced on Sunday afternoon the postponement of the PinasLakas Bakunahang Bayan launch in the National Capital Region (Metro Manila) and the rest of Luzon on Monday because of Super Typhoon 'Karding.'

In a memorandum, the DoH said the activity was suspended indefinitely, but the launch in other regions may proceed as scheduled upon the discretion of concerned executive committee members and regional directors.
