KUALA LUMPUR: As the opt-in programme for the AstraZeneca vaccine kicks off on Wednesday (May 5), those who had registered for the jab turned up in droves at the four vaccination centres to receive their jabs against Covid-19.

The AstraZeneca vaccine began to roll out on Wednesday at four vaccination centres - Universiti Malaya, Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia, the Putra World Trade Centre in Kuala Lumpur and the Ideal Convention Centre in Shah Alam.

"It was very organised. I'm impressed. I came at 11.15am and only waited about an hour plus," he said. "I am done sitting at home. If I don't get jabbed now, I might only get a chance at the end of this year or next year."
