COVID-19 VACCINATION: LAGOS TO CONTINUE INOCULATION DURING THE WEEKEND.{PHOTO}.#PRESS RELEASE.

The Lagos State Commissioner for Health, Prof. Akin Abayomi, has disclosed that the administration of Moderna vaccine for citizens will continue this weekend: Saturday, 28th and Sunday, 29th August, 2021.

Abayomi revealed this on Friday after receiving a preliminary report of day three of the vaccination exercise in Lagos State.


He explained that the plan to vaccinate this weekend was necessitated by the need to ensure that residents, who were scheduled for vaccination on Saturday and Sunday, get their first dose as scheduled to avoid a backlog that may strain the process.


The Commissioner, however, noted that the vaccination exercise in Lagos will hold *ONLY* weekdays after this weekend's exercise except otherwise stated. 


Abayomi, therefore, urged successful enrollees, who have been scheduled for vaccination this weekend, to present themselves at their assigned vaccination sites between the hours of 9.00 am and 4.00 pm to get their jabs.


He said, "We have scheduled some of our people for vaccination this weekend, precisely, Saturday and Sunday, we are not planning to deprive them of vaccination as scheduled. The vaccination teams will be on ground at the various vaccination sites on Saturday, 28th and Sunday, 29th to attend this category of people."


"This weekend's exercise is, however, one-off during this phase of the campaign subject to further review. After this weekend, vaccination will hold on weekdays - Mondays to Fridays only”, the Commissioner emphasised.


Abayomi said that the ultimate goal of the vaccination campaign is to achieve herd immunity against COVID infection for Lagos communities.
