For his part, CDC President and CEO Manuel R. Gaerlan shared his special message to the participants who were present during the activity held at Clark Marriott Hotel.

“It has been more than two years since the pandemic and we saw a lot of challenges, we have to make a lot of adjustments especially in the government including of course CDC, our systems and procedures,” he said.

“Restricted or not, we pursued our mandate of providing vital information, updates on latest advisories, policies, and guidelines implemented by our partner agencies that provide benefits to our employees particularly the SSS, PhilHealth, Pag-Ibig Fund, and DOLE, making it easier not only to our partner agencies but most importantly, to our locators and their employees”, Gaerlan added.
