Melaka Hospital says 3,000 frontliners, comprising 70% of its staff, will be receiving the Covid-19 vaccine in phase one of the national Covid-19 immunisation programme.
Areas with high Covid-19 prevalence were originally placed in the fourth phase of the national vaccination programme, before they were brought forward to the second phase, says Dr Adham Baba.
Khairy Jamaluddin lists out who exactly is defined as a frontliner -- there are two categories: health care providers and those involved in health, defence, security, and essential services.
Muhyiddin Yassin did not state the goal of Covid-19 vaccination coverage of the population before the government reopens interstate and international borders.
