"In fact, kagahapon nanawag sa ako ang SM Uptown kay willing pud sila," he added.

Moreno said the mall's Cinemas 1 and 2 are a good addition in the city's vaccination sites, serving the people in the uptown and hinterland areas, including those who are living in Barangays Iponan, Pagatpat, San Simon, Baikingon, Lumbia, Bayanga and Mambuaya, among others.

At present, Cagayan de Oro's vaccination sites include the city-run Limketkai Mall and SM Downtown Premier, and the DOH-run Centrio Ayala Mall.

"Kanang site is just one of the many things that we need to prepare with," Moreno said.

The mayor also mentioned that apart from increasing the number of vaccination sites in the city, there is a need to increase the manpower or work force, as well as improve the system for vaccination registration.

"Also, importante pud kaayo ang increase teamwork between the city government and the Department of Health regional office," Moreno said.
