BACOLOD City – To further expedite the inoculation of residents, this city is opening its fourth mall-based coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccination site today.
City Administrator Em Ang, executive director of the Emergency Operations Center, said CityMall Goldenfield would cater to categories A1 (healthcare workers), A2 (senior citizens), A3 (persons with comorbidities), A4 (essential workers), and A5 (indigent population).
CityMall is the fourth mall in Bacolod to open its doors for vaccination after Ayala Malls Capitol Central, SMX Convention Center and Robinsons Place Bacolod.
Several of the city’s barangay gymnasiums and school clusters are also being used for inoculating residents.
Bacolod City registered a record-high 12,016 vaccinations in one day on July 26.
The city government has reverted to the “no walk-in policy” at vaccination sites. Those willing to get vaccinated must register online with the COVID-19 Vaccination Council (CoVaC) and wait for their schedule of vaccination./PN
