The rest of the 12 to 17 age group can get their first booster shot of Covid-19 vaccine starting on Thursday, June 30, an official of the Department of Health (DOH) said.

Coronavirus vaccines have been prepared for distribution at a vaccination site in Manila on May 18, 2021.

Based on the DOH guidelines, these children should receive their first booster dose five months after the completion of their primary vaccination series. The local government units were instructed to “reactivate fixed vaccination sites and establish temporary posts in catchment areas/barangays to ensure administration of booster doses to eligible vaccine recipients.”
