Local chief executives in the capital region, home to 13 million residents, earlier requested for an additional 4 million virus jabs should the ECQ be imposed.

MANILA - The Philippine government is preparing to distribute 4 million additional COVID-19 shots to Metro Manila's local governments, as the region eyes boosting its vaccination rate amid tougher lockdowns, a task force said on Tuesday.

The Manila city government, meanwhile, will also open a 24/7 COVID-19 vaccination center to help boost its immunization program. "Ganoon din ang kapulisan, binigyan ng instructions ni Yorme na lahat ng magpapabakuna ay mag-aassist ang ating kapulisan at papayagan sila na pumunta sa ating mga vaccination sites,” he added.

This is to help people become used to the new guidelines once tougher lockdowns resume, which only allows Authorized Persons Outside Residence to go out for essentials. “Hindi na po magiging problema ang pag-ramp up, kasi ang dami po talagang gustong magpabakuna. Para lang conservative yung ating estimates ay nilagay na lang natin sa 5,000," he added.
