A large-scale vaccination centre capable of dispensing over 8,000 shots daily will be set up in every state, said Coordinating Minister for the National Covid-19 Immunisation Programme Khairy Jamaluddin.
He said this was in line with Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin’s directive to complete the vaccination on all people by this year.
“The strategies and budget are being formulated for this purpose.
“We are looking at one centre which can handle up to 8,000 vaccine recipients per day in the third phase. For example in Kuala Lumpur, the Bukit Jalil National Stadium,” he told reporters after visiting the vaccination centre at the Indera Mulia Stadium in Ipoh, today,
Khairy, who is also the science, technology and innovation minister, said he would also discuss with the Perak Menteri Besar Saarani Mohamad to set up a larger vaccination centre in Ipoh.
“(Right now) the Indera Mulia Stadium can only accommodate 1,400 people per day. So, if we want a larger capacity, we need to have a larger vaccination centre,” he said.
