PARAÑAQUE CITY, (PIA) -- The Taguig Local Government today announced that 𝟏,𝟎𝟏𝟓,𝟎𝟐𝟗 𝐭𝐨𝐭𝐚𝐥 𝐣𝐚𝐛𝐬 have been administered in the city as of September 7, 2021 in its battle against the COVID-19 pandemic.

With this feat, Taguig City joins Quezon City, Manila, and Caloocan City as the 4th city in the country to hit the 1 millionth mark (total COVID-19 jabs administered) in its vaccination rollout.

Taguig City attributes this milestone to the hard work of every healthcare and essential worker in the City who has largely contributed to contact tracing, vaccination efforts, and Taguig's continuous implementation of the Prevent-Detect-Isolate-Treat-Reintegrate (PDITR) strategy versus COVID-19.

 Alongside the local government’s aggressive vaccination efforts in all vaccination hubs, Taguig will continue to focus on community-based vaccination through the Taguig Mobile Vaccination Bus, Mobile Vaccination Team, and Home Service Vaccination for bedridden citizens. 

"The City will continue to provide fast, safe, and accessible vaccination for every Taguigeño," the local government said. (PIA-NCR)
