THE Covid-19 walk-in vaccination programme in the Klang Valley will end after September 15, said science, technology and innovation minister Adham Baba.

He said the decision was made after taking into account the small percentage of eligible vaccine recipients who have yet to get the jabs.

Starting September 16, Klang Valley residents who have yet to get vaccinated can go to selected health clinics which will be announced later.

“The walk-in vaccination programme will still continue in the states. The public is advised to follow the latest updates from their state health departments regarding the walk-in programme,” he said during a press conference at the handover ceremony between him and health minister Khairy Jamaluddin in Putrajaya today.

Adham said that as of September 7, 69.9% of the total adult population in the country have completed their vaccination.

The National Covid-19 immunisation programme aims to inoculate 80% of the country’s adult population by the end of the year. – Bernama, September 8, 2021.
