PH administers over 50-M COVID-19 vaccine doses nationwide

The Philippines’ National Vaccine Program has reached another milestone, as over 50 million COVID-19 vaccine doses have been administered since its rollout began in March.

According to National Vaccination Operation Center (NVOC) data, a total of 50,066,590 doses have already been administered to more than 30 million Filipinos nationwide, of which 23,360,489 individuals have been fully vaccinated or 30.28% of the country’s target population as of October 11.

On October 15, the Philippines will begin the inoculation of individuals within the 12 to 17 age group with comorbidities in eight selected hospitals in Metro Manila.

National Task Force against COVID-19 Chief Implementer and vaccine czar Secretary Carlito G. Galvez, Jr. said the country now has enough vaccine supplies to inoculate roughly 1.2 million adolescents with comorbidities, of which around 144,123 are from the National Capital Region.

The Philippines expects the delivery of around 100 million doses of COVID-19 vaccines by the end of October, with the national government aiming to vaccinate at least 90% of the country’s population by February 2022 in preparation for the national elections.
