Majority of the jabs administered were second doses.

Meanwhile, when it comes to sectors, the most that were vaccinated were 12 to 17 year old minors.

Up to nine million doses of the Janssen vaccines are being prepared to be administered in order for local government units to quickly reach the target of 54 million fully vaccinated Filipinos by the end of the year.
