NCR, 8 areas should get jab priority – OCTA

An independent research group said the government can control the rising number of infections if it gives priority to the vaccination of residents in the National Capital Region (NCR) and eight provinces.

OCTA Research identified these provinces as Cavite, Rizal, Bulacan, Laguna, Pampanga and Batangas as well as Metro Cebu and Davao City. Giving priority to these areas will bring down infections, hospitalizations and even deaths, the group said.
