Mayor Cynthia G. Linao-Estanislao launched Chikiting Ligtas program in Morong that aims to vaccinate children against measles, rubella, and polio.

“Ang mga batang may edad 0 to 59 months old magpabakuna kontra polio at ang 9 to 59 months old naman ay magpa bakuna laban sa rubella at tigdas”, she urged.

“Kapag dumami ang kaso baka magka-outbreak, mahihirapan ang ating mga health workers. Dadami ang malalagay sa peligro”, she said.

“Dalhin ang inyong mga anak sa pinamalapit na barangay health center o itinalagang vaccination site o patuluyin ang ating team ng nurses at midwives na magbabakuna sa inyong tahanan” , she said.

“Ang ating pong ibinibigay na bakuna ay libre epektibo, at ligtas. Protektaha po natin ang ating mga anak. Suportahan natin ang programang Chikiting Ligtas sa Dagdag Bakuna Kontra Polio, Rubella, at Tigdas ng gobyerno”, the Linao-Estanislao said.

Chikiting Ligtas is a nationwide supplemental immunization campaign hatched by DOH that targets to protect children against measles, rubella, and polio.

Due to Covid 19 pandemic, large number of children in the country missed out entirely or partially on routine immunization.
