NTF prepares fourth dose rollout for vulnerable groups

The National Task Force Against Covid-19 and NVOC are preparing logistics for a fourth dose or second booster of the COVID vaccine for vulnerable populations.

The FDA has approved emergency use authorization for the second booster, but rollout is on hold until HTAC gives its final recommendation.

Health Undersecretary Cabotaje expects HTAC to release guidelines by April 20 for senior citizens, immunocompromised individuals, and frontline health workers in NCR.
