DEPARTMENT of Health (DoH) spokesman Dr. Eric Tayag said Saturday the agency was doing quick procurement of 5-in-1 vaccines for pertussis or whooping cough following reported cases in Quezon City, Calabarzon and Central Visayas regions.

In a news forum in Quezon City, Tayag said that apart from the low vaccine coverage, the country also had a problem with the supply of 5-in-1 vaccines.
