During a news forum Friday, Health Undersecretary Maria Rosario Vergeire said the lapses should not be blamed on the vaccinators' inexperience. Also on Friday, National Task Force Against Covid-19 Deputy Chief Implementer Vivencio Dizon said over 11 million doses of Covid-19 vaccines have been administered in the Philippines. Dizon said a record 1 million doses were administered in just four days starting last Monday. The country expects to receive over 13 million vaccine doses this month.
