Go to parents: Back govt's renewed vax drive

SEN. Christopher Lawrence 'Bong' Go, chairman of the Senate Committee on Health and Demography, is urging parents to support the government's vaccination program aimed at protecting their children from diseases.

Go's request comes amid reports of increasing measles cases in the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (BARMM), as well as pertussis outbreaks in the National Capital Region, particularly Taguig City and Quezon City, and other parts of the country, including Iloilo City.
