KUALA LUMPUR – A total of 2,990,577 individuals have registered for the Covid-19 vaccine shot through the MySejahtera application as at 8am today.

Health Director-General Tan Sri Dr Noor Hisham Abdulllah, through an infographic, shared on his Twitter account, saying that since registration for the vaccination under the National Covid-19 Immunisation Programme opened on February 24, Selangor has topped the number of registrations with 991,181.

This is followed by Johor with 335,537 individuals, Kuala Lumpur (292,983) and Sarawak (240,630).
