8 Metro Manila LGUs start minor vaccine registration

Eight Metro Manila local government units (LGUs) have started the registration of minors aged 12 to 17 years for COVID-19 vaccination.

These LGUs include Pateros, Makati, Muntinlupa, Mandaluyong, Manila, Caloocan, Taguig, and Las Pinas City.

Pateros began registration on September 8, using a QR code from the municipal government's Facebook page.

Manila allows registration through www.manilacovid-19vaccine.ph, either under a single family account or separately.

Las Pinas City will use the EZ consult account for registration, the same app used by residents for their own vaccination.

Taguig City launched its registration for minors aged 12 to 17 years old, who are residents or students in the city, through the Taguig Registry for Assessment and Citizen Engagements (TRACE) platform.

Mandaluyong City opened its registration for minors aged 12 to 17, allowing them to register using their household code via https://mandavax.egapsonline.com/Mandaluyong/manda-vaccine/.

The Quezon City government is coordinating with schools to obtain a master list of students for vaccination sites, and with barangays for out-of-school youths.
