SM Supermalls has achieved a back-to-back milestone in its efforts to help the Philippines eliminate COVID-19: achieving the five-millionth COVID-19 shot and expanding the number of SM malls serving as pediatric immunization locations outside of Metro Manila.
“Breaching the five-millionth mark is a testament to our commitment to providing our communities with accessible and convenient vaccination sites. We thank our partner LGUs for this partnership are happy to provide our malls as pediatric vaccination centers for minors belonging to the 12-17 age group.” said Steven Tan, president of SM Supermalls.
