Aimed at keeping the students safe as in-person classes resume, the Vacc 2 School: Ligtas na Bakuna para sa Balik Eskwela campaign was launched this morning, September 7, at Pilar Elementary School. The campaign also aims to educate and engage the people in promoting the immunization drive of each LGU to mitigate the spread of COVID-19.
