The incidents were triggered by rumors that unvaccinated people in Metro Manila cannot go out for essential trips or receive cash assistance from the government during the ECQ period starting tomorrow.

— Thousands of people hoping to get vaccinated against COVID-19 rushed to various inoculation sites on Thursday ahead of the hard lockdown, after rumors spread that there would be more restrictions for unvaccinated persons.

Police officials said the number of people lining up in four malls designated as vaccination sites initially hovered at around 1,000 to 2,000 per location. The number, however, went up to 3,000 and soared to as high as 10,000 the day before the imposition of the strictest enhanced community quarantine on Friday.

Authorities said even residents from Cavite, Bulacan, Laguna, and Rizal arrived in the mall in vans to get the shots. [Translation: People in line were hitting each other, many were also cutting the line. You should be well rested before your vaccination. Some of those in line were there since 6 p.m. the day before.]
