KOTA KINABALU – Sabah police are ready to take action against anti-vaxxers in the state, as they are monitoring social media and talk on the ground.

State police commissioner Datuk Hazani Ghazali said there is no obvious anti-vaxxer movement in Sabah for now. “If we find an attempt or movement (of Covid-19 anti-vaxxers), we will take necessary action against them,” he said.

Meanwhile, the senior policeman received his Covid-19 vaccination in the Federal Government Administration Complex’s multipurpose hall here today.

Hazani said a total of 4,338 of police officers will receive their vaccine during the first phase, adding that he expects all of the state’s 11,000 officers to be vaccinated by the end of April.

“The public should not fear or doubt the vaccine, as it is for the good of all.” – The Vibes, March 4, 2021
