"We are already prepared in the vaccination of 5 to 11 years old," Galvez, also the vaccine czar, reported during President Rodrigo Duterte's prerecorded Talk to the People. Galvez said the government will issue the memorandum guidance this week, with town hall meetings to be conducted from January 24 to 28, for the rollout of the pediatric vaccination under the 5-11 years old age bracket.

Galvez said the pediatric vaccination for this age bracket will be rolled out in two phases. A pilot run will be conducted in one hospital-based and one local government unit (LGU)-based vaccination site
