National Control Center Deputy Incidence Manager, Dr. Melinda Susapu revealed this when giving an update on COVID- 19 situation yesterday, (Monday 5th April 2021)​

Dr. Susapu says the vaccination will resume this week following the Easter break, with priority given to frontline health workers.
Meantime, Health workers in the Nation's Capital are top on the list to be vaccinated followed by provinces. 
 Dr. Melinda Susapu said this when responding to questions on whether the AstraZeneca vaccine will be rolled out to hot spot provinces, given the upsurge in COVID -19 cases.
