The T&T Man­u­fac­tur­ers As­so­ci­a­tion (TTMA) has com­plet­ed its mass vac­ci­na­tion dri­ves for the busi­ness com­mu­ni­ty and the pub­lic with 40,000 plus vac­cines at 14 mass vac­ci­na­tion sites from June 6 to Au­gust 19, 2021.

TTMA’s pres­i­dent Tri­cia Coos­al said the or­gan­i­sa­tion was the first to ex­e­cute a pub­lic-pri­vate part­ner­ship with the Min­istry of Health and the Min­istry of Trade for the ex­e­cu­tion of vac­ci­na­tion sites.

She added the align­ment which al­so in­clud­ed vol­un­teers al­so made it pos­si­ble for smooth and ef­fi­cient op­er­a­tions, and even pro­vid­ed an ex­e­cu­tion tem­plate for oth­er or­gan­i­sa­tions.

“The TTMA is thrilled to have em­bod­ied our mantra Safe­ty for Suc­cess un­der Vac­ci­nate to Op­er­ate. The TTMA feels re­ward­ed on our sig­nif­i­cant con­tri­bu­tion to the safe re-open­ing of the econ­o­my through our vac­ci­na­tion dri­ves.

“In June and Ju­ly our vac­ci­na­tion dri­ves fo­cused on the busi­ness­es com­mu­ni­ty, with the avail­abil­i­ty of vac­cines and the roll-out of a na­tion­al foot­print of vac­ci­na­tion dri­ves to the pub­lic the TTMA can now re­fo­cus our ef­forts on our mis­sion to in­crease the val­ue and growth of the man­u­fac­tur­ing sec­tor in T&T,” Coos­al said.

As the coun­try grad­u­al­ly moves to­wards re­open­ing, she al­so en­cour­aged every one to be vac­ci­nat­ed.
