THE Federal Territories Ministry rolled out a mobile vaccination plan yesterday in Kuala Lumpur with the aim of inoculating up to 20,000 people by the end of July.
The trucks will visit densely populated housing schemes and the construction sites that are permitted to continue work during the lockdown.
Healthcare workers will administer the shots in the trucks as well as in tents. They will also set up shop in the community halls.
Such makeshift facilities proved a success at the PPR Muhibbah flats in Lembah Pantai, where nearly 1,000 people received their jabs in a day. – June 8, 2021.
