RANG-AY SUPPORTS VACCINATION PROGRAM
- July 26, 2021
One of the most important developments in our fight against the pandemic is the roll-out of vaccines nationwide. When it comes to preventing the further spread of coronavirus disease (Covid-19), vaccination is as important as wearing a mask, observing physical distancing and proper hygiene.
Rang-ay Bank believes that the best solution to prevent the spread of Covid-19 is to get vaccinated. As frontline workers, the bank encourages all to register in their respective barangay or rural health units (RHU) for vaccination schedules.
At present, more than 50 bankers have already been vaccinated in their respective Local Government Units (LGUs). Most have registered and waiting for their schedule of vaccination. Let us all be part of the solution and get vaccinated para maging ligtas at protektado laban sa mga sakit na dulot ng Covid-19.
