Amid issues hounding the purchase of syringes for vaccination, the government is gearing up for another round of the nationwide inoculation program.

Vaccine czar Carlito Galvez Jr. says they hope to vaccinate up to 9 million Filipinos. That was the same target in the first wave, but the government fell short, delivering only over 8 million doses.

Galvez says the country now has 62 million COVID-19 shots and is expecting the arrival of 50 million more.
