“Over the next couple of days, the Lagos State Government would release policies to facilitate the uptake of vaccines to achieve desirable herd immunity,” he said.
Sanwo-Olu warned that social gatherings in Lagos must adhere to safety measures to ensure the virus is not transmitted indiscriminately.
Event centres are directed to limit occupancy limit to 60% of maximum design capacity, and request attendees to present proof of COVID-19 vaccination.
“I would want to use this opportunity once again to appeal to everyone to get vaccinated and join hands with the Lagos State Government in managing this wave of the pandemic in this festive season by following the guidelines we have set, especially regarding the use of face masks, public gatherings and travelling in and out of Lagos State,” he said.
Lagos has been worst hit by the pandemic in Nigeria, recording over 78,000 infections and over 700 deaths.
