He said that the Ministry of Health (MOH) will update this information periodically in the event of an increase or change in the number of PPVs.
"To receive the Covid-19 vaccine, the public can visit the listed PPVs as walk-ins or schedule appointments using the MySejahtera application, following the reservation procedures established during the previous National Covid-19 Immunisation Programme (PICK),” he said in a statement today.
"MOH wishes to stress that the uptake of the Covid-19 vaccine is currently voluntary, but it is encouraged, especially for high-risk groups such as the elderly or individuals with comorbidities," he added.
At the same time, Dr Dzulkefly stated that the available Covid-19 vaccines in the country are effective in protecting against severe complications if infected.
He also urged every Malaysian to play a role and responsibility in protecting themselves from infection and not transmitting Covid-19 to others by practising the 3Ws (Wash, Wear, Warn) and avoiding the 3S (crowded, confined places and close conversations) - BERNAMA
