KUALA LUMPUR – Local healthcare company Antah Pharma Sdn Bhd inked a partnership with Pharmaniaga LifeScience Sdn Bhd (PLS) as one of the first corporations to privately supply and distribute the Sinovac Covid-19 vaccine.

The Antah Healthcare Group subsidiary in a press statement today announced the supply and distribution agreement between itself and PLS, where it can sell the vaccine to, among others, employers, general physician clinics, hospitals and pharmacies through its sales channels.

“We are extremely delighted to be selected as a partner to work with Pharmaniaga in providing vaccines to Malaysians,” said group CEO Datuk Tunku Mohamed Alauddin Tunku Naquiyuddin.

“I believe the government has been working hard in accelerating the vaccine process, but with a private partnership like this, I believe we can achieve herd immunity faster than expected.

“We are thrilled to be part of this journey and hope that through us, the vaccine will be easily accessible to everyone since anyone can purchase it.

“Through our distribution network, the Sinovac vaccine will be available to Malaysians, complementing the government’s effort in accelerating the vaccination process”.

Antah Pharma will also be offering on-site vaccination for its corporate clients.

Customers may choose to get their vaccine through its panel of clinics and doctors, which will be made available, nationwide.

Bookings can be made via their email. – The Vibes, July 22, 2021
