"The vaccination will keep being given, even though the set deadline ends this March 31," he expressed, Wednesday (3/31).

He stated that shuttle services for the elderly from the house to the vaccination site in eight sub-districts were effectively increasing the number of older people being vaccinated.

"One of the obstacles is access to the location. The shuttle service is quite effective," he stated.
