The Department of Information and Communications Technology said on Wednesday some local governments have yet to submit information for the dashboard that would speed up COVID-19 vaccinations.
The Vaccine Information Management System is designed to hold vital information on local governments, health facilities, and residents, while keeping track of vaccine supply and distribution, said DICT Undersecretary Manny Caintic.
"With the information system, hindi magtatagal from registration to consent to screening to vaccination," Caintic said in a public briefing. "Importante sa amin iyon para sa demand planning, sa distribution and allocation," said the official. "We are sending compliance reports. I will not name any particular LGU, pero tuloy-tuloy po ang pangungulit namin kasi importante pong mapadala nila lahat agad ang kanilang master list," he said. The DICT is also trying to get resident details from the Commission on Elections and state medical insurer PhilHealth, he said.
