First Pfizer shots for children aged 5-11 arrive in PhilippinesCrates containing doses of Pfizer-BioNTech's reformulated vaccine for children aged five to 11 arrive at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport on February 4, 2022. MANILA, Philippines — The first batch of Pfizer-BioNTech coronavirus vaccine doses reformulated for children aged five to 11 arrived Friday night in the Philippines after being delayed by a day. Officials earlier announced that the Pfizer shots would arrive Thursday. The “logistical challenges” encountered in the shipment of the jabs prompted authorities to push back the start of the vaccination of children aged five to 11 to Monday. But the start of the vaccination of children aged five to 11 is facing a legal challenge, with two parents asking the Quezon City Regional Trial Court to stop the inoculation of this age group.
