Manila has opened its COVID-19 vaccination registration for individuals aged 12 to 17 years old.
In his capital report on Friday, Mayor Francisco “Isko Moreno” Domagoso said parents can register their children for vaccination at
the www.manilacovid19vaccine.ph in two ways.
Parents can either register their children under their account and add them under "family" or register them separately.
Domagoso said the opening of registration for 12 to 17-year-olds is in preparation for the national government’s green light for their vaccination.
“Para kapag go na, pwede na tayo mag bakuna (So when we’re given a go signal, we can already vaccinate),” he said.
The mayor said experts have approved the use of Moderna and Pfizer for children aged 12 to 17.
Domagoso, however, said that the national government has yet to give a go signal for their inoculation.
