Manila Mayor Isko Moreno, who visited the site to check the situation, said vaccinations on Wednesday will continue.

As of 10:50 am, Manila has administered 15,096 vaccine doses, according to Moreno.

“Rain and flooding will not stop us dahil hindi din nagpapahinga si COVID-19 (because COVID-19 also does not rest),” Domagoso told reporters.
