He added that appointments for recipients under the second phase of the immunisation programme will be sent out through the MySejahtera application beginning today. Kedah, Melaka, Pahang, Sabah, Sarawak, Terengganu and Labuan are set to kick off their vaccination programmes on April 19, while other states will begin from April 22 to 26.
