A 105-YEAR-OLD grandmother in Aklan received her first dose of coronavirus disease (Covid-19) vaccine.
The Altavas Rural Health Unit (RHU) identified the grandmother as Brigida Panadero.
RHU personnel went to Panadero’s house to give her the first dose.
Panadero, who said she also witnessed the Spanish flu pandemic in 1918, is currently considered the oldest person in Aklan to have received a Covid-19 vaccine.
Aside from Panadero, a 101-year-old man also got his second dose of Sinovac Covid-19 vaccine in Makato, Aklan.
Dr. Rane Tabanar, municipal health physician, said the man, identified as Paceinte Tejada, is a war veteran and could still walk and even do laundry.
"He even walked inside the Makato Gym to get his second dose of Sinovac recently. He is fine after getting his second dose," Tabanar said.
The Aklan Provincial Government has urged residents not to be afraid of the Covid-19 vaccine, as it will help protect them from the deadly virus.
