SAN JUAN CITY ACTIVE COVID-19 CASES DROP BY MORE THAN 86%

January 31, 2022

"San Juan City now has only 272 active cases of COVID-19. This is an 86.03% drop in just 18 days, coming from a high of 1,947 last January 12. Likewise, the utilization rates in San Medical Center and in our quarantine facilities are at a low of 25% and 13% respectively. We attribute this continuous drop of COVID-19 cases to the high rate of vaccination in our city which is now at 250% of our target population and the adherence of our people to all health and safety protocols. With the forthcoming vaccination of children aged 5-11 years old starting February 4, we expect a bigger percentage of our population to get protected against the Coronavirus. But we must not be complacent. Let us continue to follow all minimum public health standards and get our booster shots for the numbers to decline even further." - Mayor Francis Zamora
