Provincial TTMFs are on standby while border checkpoints will remain in place to ensure compliance of requirement of vaccination card or negative RT-PCR test for non-Benguet residents traveling to the province. Those who are allowed entry are required to undergo triage at the TTMF1 in Wangal, La Trinidad, Benguet. Benguet remains under Alert Level 2. Meanwhile, CoVID-19 vaccination is still ongoing. The Provincial Vax Team continues to assist LGUs particularly areas with low vaccination rate and those which have high target population. There are now over 52% of the more than 388,000 target population in the province who got fully vaccinated.
