THERE has been no instruction from the government to make it mandatory for Malaysians to get booster jabs following the increase in Covid-19 cases, Communications Minister Fahmi Fadzil said.
The unity government spokesman said for now, the Health Ministry has only encouraged the people, especially the vulnerable and those in high-risk groups, to get the third booster dose.
“This is a minor misunderstanding on social media; please verify the content before we share any information; sometimes the headline doesn’t match the content, and I advise that we verify (the content) first,” he told reporters at Wisma Bernama today.
He said this after witnessing the signing of a memorandum of agreement between Bernama and China’s Xinhua News Agency.
Fahmi said he would suggest Health Minister Datuk Seri Dr Dzulkefly Ahmad meet with leaders of local media outlets to clarify issues related to the booster dose. – Bernama, December 18, 2023.
