Ilan aniya sa mga nagkaroon ng breakthrough COVID-19 infections ay mga senior citizen.</p><p>&quot;Kung may edad ka na, your antibody will not be as good as that in the younger population. So mataas ang risk na makakuha ka ng infection,&quot; paliwanag ni Solante. </p><p>&quot;When your age is 60 years old and above, your immune response is not enough to protect you, for COVID-19 to be severe and critical,&quot; paliwanag ni Solante.</p><p>Nakapagpapataas din aniya ng risk na mahawahan ng COVID-19 kahit bakunado ang pagiging immunocompromised o kaya ay pagkakaroon ng comorbidity ng isang indibidwal.</p><p>&quot;Mataas ang breakthrough infection ng immunocompromised, ‘yung may mga cancer, may post-transplant recipient, those who are undergoing hemodialysis,&quot; sabi niya. </p><p>&quot;Aside from obesity or hypertensive, diabetic, whether you are 60 years old and above or less than 60 years old... if you have these comorbidities, you&#x27;re also at risk of getting a more severe, critical form of COVID,&quot; dagdag ni Solante. </p><p>Obserbasyon pa ng eksperto, maging ang mga mahihina ang pangangatawan at kulang sa nutrisyon ay kasama sa mga tinatamaan pa rin ng novel coronavirus kahit bakunado na.</p><p>Dahil umano ito sa &quot;nababawasan&quot; nilang kakayahan na magkaroon ng sapat na immune response dahil sa malnutrisyon, comorbidity, o dahil sa kanilang edad.</p><ul class="op-related-articles">	<li><a href="https://news.abs-cbn.com/overseas/08/24/21/breakthrough-covid-cases-may-be-less-infectious-study">Breakthrough COVID cases may be less infectious, study shows</a></li></ul><p>&quot;&#x27;Yung tinatawag natin na very frail na individual, very weak. &#x27;Yung hirap maglakad, walang gana kumain. These are the people that can be infected with COVID and can be severe,&quot; paliwanag niya. </p><p>Apektado rin ang efficacy ng vaccines sa gitna ng mga bagong COVID-19 variants.</p><p>Kaya payo ni Solante, kahit fully vaccinated na, ugaliin pa ring sumunod sa health protocols tulad ng pagsusuot ng face mask, physical distancing at palagiang paghuhugas ng kamay. </p><p>Makatutulong din umano kung babawasan ang interaction sa mga hindi pa bakunado. At kung may maintenance medicines, tiyaking naiinom ito nang regular.</p><p>&quot;For the elderly, you need to still be protected by obeying the health protocol, and less interaction, especially with unvaccinated,” sabi ni Solante.</p><p>&quot;For those with comorbidity, they have to maintain their medications, for example for diabetes, for hypertension… They have to maintain a good maintenance medication so that these comorbidities are stable. Unstable comorbidities will increase your risk of getting more severe and critical COVID,&quot; dagdag niya.</p><div><strong>BOOSTER SHOTS</strong></div><p>Makatutulong ba ang pagbibigay ng COVID-19 booster shots sa kanila?</p><p>Ayon sa eskperto, mas mainam na magiging &quot;variant-specific&quot; o bagong mga bakuna ang ipapamigay na ikatlong dose ng COVID-19 vaccine.</p><p>&quot;The problem with booster shots among this population, I don’t know if additional doses can still protect them. Because they already have problems with the immune response. Debatable &#x27;yan kung talagang they can be protected,” sabi ni Solante.</p><p>Nauna nang sinabi ni vaccine czar Sec. Carlito Galvez Jr. na posible lang simulan ang pagbibigay ng booster shots sa bansa kapag nabakunahan na ang &quot;sizeable amount&quot; ng populasyon.</p><p>Base sa datos ng gobyerno nitong Lunes, lagpas 17 milyong indibidwal o 22.14 ng kabuuang populasyon ng Pilipinas ang fully vaccinated kontra COVID-19. </p><p>Lagpas 22 million naman ng populasyon ang nakatanggap ng unang dose. Nasa 70 percent ng populasyon ang target mabakunahan ng gobyerno ngayong taon.</p><p>Bahagyang bumilis ang pagbabakuna kontra COVID sa bansa nitong nakaraang linggo (Sept 6 to 12) na pumalo ng 415,362 doses kada araw, pero mas mababa pa rin ito sa target na kalahating milyong doses kada araw.</p><ul class="op-related-articles">	<li><a href="https://news.abs-cbn.com/video/news/08/25/21/alamin-ano-ang-covid-19-breakthrough-infection">ALAMIN: Ano ang COVID-19 &#x27;breakthrough infection&#x27;</a></li></ul><p>Huling nakapagtala ang bansa ng average na pagbabakuna ng higit 500,000 doses kada araw noong August 2 to 8.</p><p>Sa pagtataya ni ABS-CBN News Data Analytics head Edson Guido, aabutin ng hanggang June 2022 bago maabot ng Pilipinas ang target na makumpleto ang COVID vaccination ng 77 milyong Pilipino o 70 percent ng populasyon.</p><div class="infogram-embed" data-id="_/yFVE69R1WlSdqY3aCsBF" data-title="COVID-19 VACCINE TRACKER PH" data-type="interactive"> </div><div><script type="text/javascript">!function(e,i,n,s){var t='InfogramEmbeds',d=e.getElementsByTagName('script')[0];if(window[t]&&window[t].initialized)window[t].process&&window[t].process();else if(!e.getElementById(n)){var o=e.createElement('script');o.async=1,o.id=n,o.src='https://e.infogram.com/js/dist/embed-loader-min.js',d.parentNode.insertBefore(o,d)}}(document,0,'infogram-async');</script></div>
