The Philippine government aims to administer five million doses of COVID-19 vaccines during a three-day 'National Vaccination Day' in November.

On Thursday, the country administered over one million vaccine doses for the first time since the vaccination program began last March.

As of Friday, 28.7 million Filipinos are fully vaccinated and the government plans to vaccinate at least one million people daily starting November 20.

To achieve this goal, additional vaccination sites will be activated in malls, universities, schools, gyms, camps, and function halls of different government agencies.
