KUALA LUMPUR – A statement by police advising individuals who are worried about being administered with an empty syringe to take a Covid-19 neutralising antibody test is outside the jurisdiction of the Royal Malaysia Police, said Inspector-General of Police Datuk Seri Acryl Sani Abdullah Sani.

He said any difficulty or question that arose following the statement issued by Bukit Aman Criminal Investigation Department director Datuk Seri Abd Jalil Hassan is regretted.

“We remain committed to supporting the National Covid-19 Immunisation Programme, and will take steps in line with the Health Ministry, Covid-19 Immunisation Task Force and Covid-19 Vaccine Supply Access Guarantee Special Committee to ensure the best service is delivered to the public.”

Yesterday, Jalil said recipients who are anxious and feel cheated can take a Covid-19 neutralising antibody test at a licensed medical laboratory 30 days after receiving the second dose to confirm the presence of antibodies in the body. – Bernama, July 25, 2021
