With the progress in eradicating polio globally due to widespread vaccination, the Rotary Club of Cebu Fuente (RCCF) partnered with the Ramon Aboitiz Foundation, Inc. (RAFI) to educate the community
on the advantages and benefits of COVID-19 vaccination to bring the country towards herd immunity in a virtual press conference held last Friday, October 1, 2021.
During the program, Atty. Bernardino T. Amago IV, President of RCCF, gave the opening remarks. Atty. Amago’s message emphasized how we should transcend our sense of community above our self-interest. He continued to encourage the body to inspire more people, if not all, to get vaccinated. Bumagat motivated everyone to not only campaign to end polio worldwide but also for people to get vaccinated for COVID-19.
RAFI’s Brand Development Group Assistant Vice-President Estee Marie Plunket also thanked the body for their helping initiative to help communities to be able to get vaccinated and learn more about it through IEC campaigns. She continued to encourage everyone to continue achieving the desired number for herd immunity by the end of the year.
