Meanwhile, Mayor Evelio Leonardia said he hopes more Bacolodnons will get vaccinated after seeing him complete the two doses of AstraZeneca jab as an added protection against COVID-19.
“I hope I can serve as an example to encourage vaccine confidence further,” he said in a statement on Monday.
Leonardia received his second dose on July 3 at the Bacolod City Government Center vaccination hub after taking the first shot in the same venue on April 17.||
