PETALING JAYA: The public don't have to pay for their Covid-19 vaccine as the sale of 14 million doses of the Sinovac vaccine to state governments and the private sector isn't meant to replace the national immunisation programme, says MCA.

Wilayah MCA youth vice-chairman Chris Daniel Wong said the sale of the vaccine by Pharmaniage Bhd is for complementary inoculation initiatives to the National Covid-19 Immunisation Programme.

He was responding to criticism from former International Trade and Industry minister Tan Sri Rafidah Aziz about the decision to allow the sale to certain states and private entities, saying that the people should not be made to pay for “what should be free". "State governments' initiatives roll out their own vaccine programme to complement the Federal Government’s National Covid-19 Immunisation Programme to achieve herd immunity; it was never meant to replace it," he added in a statement on Saturday .

Walao... shuddup ler.. still got people listen to u?

Since this was not the plan earlier, whom do you think is now without the vaccine? Its the people who are not educated, no access to social media and who cannot afford to pay for the vaccine. How does this help?

Deeey..budgeted as free for All...
