With the country’s goal to fully immunize Filipinos, the Department of Health Central Visayas Center for Health Development (DOH CVCHD) officially launched the World Immunization Week 2025 last Wednesday at SM City Cebu.

With the theme “Magpabakuna! Bakuna sa lahat, kayang-kaya!” the campaign highlights the importance of vaccination as a vital public health approach, urging people of all ages to get immunized and help build a healthier, safer community.
According to DOH CVCHD assistant regional director Dr. Sophia Mancao, each vaccine dose given represents hope and that good health is a right for all --young and old alike.
“Sa matag hatag nato sa bakuna adunay paglaum na kinabuhi,” she emphasized.
Cebu City Health Department head Dr. Daisy Villa also stressed the importance of educating parents, especially mothers, about the benefits of vaccines.
“Ang atong mga katawhan, labi na ang inahan, labi na ang ginikanan, kinahanglang mapasabot kung unsa ang bakuna,” she said.
The event gathered barangay health workers, medical experts, parents, children, and senior citizens to promote immunization awareness.
