Metro Manila (CNN Philippines, November 27) – Motorcylce ride-hailing service Angkas will offer free rides to healthcare workers to and from vaccination sites during the national vaccination drive from Nov. 29 to Dec. 1.
Angkas co-founder and chief transport advocate George Royeca told CNN Philippines the offer will be available to medical frontliners based in Metro Manila, Laguna, Cavite, Bulacan, and Metro Cebu.
Royeca said interested healthcare workers can visit Angkas’ Facebook page, where they can fill up a link so their names will be listed in the Angkas app.
A promo code and text message will be received by the healthcare worker to know if he or she is eligible for the free ride.
Angkas is also considering extending the free rides to medical frontliners beyond Dec. 1, Royeca added.
The national government is targeting to administer nine million vaccine doses during the three-day vaccination drive to complete its goal of having 54 million fully vaccinated Filipinos by year-end.
