AstraZeneca vaccines against Covid-19 will only be used on a voluntary basis in Malaysia, according to Khairy Jamaluddin.
The science, technology and innovation minister told a presser today that the decision was made as certain quarters were worried about its possible side-effects regardless of data that shows it is safe.
"We have agreed that a proactive measure is to be taken, where the AstraZeneca vaccine can still be used, and at the same time address the concerns that some people have (over its use), although their fear is not based on science."
