  • Can I appeal to the DG and KJ to please vaccinate the senior citizens first. As 70-80% covid deaths are senior citizens, can priority be given to them first. The aged care homes both in KL and Selangor are yet to be vaccinated. The aged care workers are also not vaccinated. A lot of senior citizens out there are also not vaccinated and we are the most vulnerable. So can you assign a team to look into vaccinating these homes and their workers and all the senior citizens out there immediately please. We dont want to be the next 70-80% unlucky ones.
