THE Davao City government in coordination with the Department of Education (DepEd) and the Commission on Higher Education (CHEd) has beefed up its vaccination drive for students against Covid-19 before all public schools return to full face-to-face classes on November 2. City's Covid-19 Task Force spokesman Dr. Michelle Schlosser said their goal is to inoculate 100 percent of the city's student population before they return to full face-to-face classes. Schlosser said the CHEd, DepEd, and officials from schools with Covid cases had been committed to conducting a series of school-based vaccinations with an intensified information education campaign to prevent the spread of infection. The education sector's vaccination campaign will focus on reaching children ages 5 to 11 as a significant portion of this age group remains unvaccinated. The campaign will cover 'vaccination safety, efficacy and benefits,' as well as the management protocols for Covid-19 cases if one is detected in the school setting. The city has recorded 10 Covid-19-related deaths from October 2 to 8 of which six were unvaccinated cases.
