SEMPORNA, June 16 — The Health Ministry is tracing cases of babies or children dropping out of immunisation during the movement control order to reschedule the required jabs, said Deputy Health Minister Datuk Dr Noor Azmi Ghazali.

“If parents or guardians are not sure whether their children have missed any immunisation, they can contact or go directly to the nearest health clinic to check their immunisation records,” he said when speaking at the opening of the National Immunisation Week 2022 here today. On the National Immunisation Week celebration, he said free Covid-19 jabs under National Children’s Immunisation Programme for children aged 5 to 11 would be dispensed for five days from June 20 to 24 by walking -in to health clinics in every state.

At today’s ceremony, two staff of Pagalungan Health Clinic, Mohd Qayyum Saiman and Mohd Shazwi Manglun were given certificates of appreciation for their efforts to save a supply of polio vaccine after being involved in a boat capsize in Sungai Pagalungan on July 10, 2020.
