KUALA LUMPUR – Two integrated vaccination centres here, namely the World Trade Centre Kuala Lumpur (WTC KL) and Axiata Arena sites, are ready to operate from tomorrow.

Kuala Lumpur vaccination centre coordinator Dr Misliza Ahmad said the Health Ministry has been making preparations since Wednesday, including a dry run today, to enable both the centres providing the AstraZeneca booster jabs to operate smoothly from tomorrow.

“Today, we carried out a dry run involving every counter, right from the registration counter to the last vaccination counter, to ensure everything runs smoothly,” she told Bernama today.

At the same time, Dr Misliza said, more than 300 staff and volunteers, including from the Malaysia Vaccine Support Volunteers, police, Civil Defence Force, People’s Volunteer Corps and armed forces, will assist in the immunisation programme at the two centres.

She said the WTC KL centre will provide a total of 9,000 doses of booster jabs daily while the Axiata Arena centre will be dispensing 8,000 doses, adding that it would take each individual about 30 minutes to complete the process of receiving their booster shot. – Bernama, January 14, 2022
