MMDA starts vaccination drive for ages 5 to 11

The Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA) will roll out today its pediatric vaccination program for children aged five to 11.

In an interview on dzBB yesterday, MMDA’s Health and Environmental Protection Office chief Loida Alzona said the agency turned the vaccination facility into a playground to encourage more children to get inoculated.

Alzona said children five to 11 years old would receive doses of reformulated Pfizer vaccine.

Children will be given loot bags after the vaccination, she added.

Alzona said the children and grandchildren of MMDA employees would be prioritized in the inoculation program.
