Supplemental vaccination A child receives oral polio vaccine in Antique province on February 1, the start of the government’s month-long supplemental immunization program for measles-rubella and polio. The vaccination program, intended for children 0-59 months, is under the Department of Health (DoH) and implemented by the local government health units. Hataman pushes for Marawi compensation bill HOUSE Deputy Speaker and Basilan Rep. Mujiv S. Hataman called for the immediate passage of the bill that will provide compensation to residents of Marawi who were displaced following the 2017 siege by local extremist groups. Mr. Hataman expressed worry that the pending measure will be further delayed by the 2022 local and national elections, talks on Charter change, and the proposed extension of the transition period in the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (BARMM). In a statement on Monday, Mr. Hataman, former governor of the ARMM that was replaced by the BARMM, urged both the House of Representatives and the Senate to pass the proposal so Marawi, which was ravaged by the five-month gun battle between the extremist groups and government forces, could rebuild its community and start anew. He said the compensation bill could be included and funded under the 2022 national budget if it is passed soon.
