KUCHING, June 10: Minister-in-charge of Miri Division Disaster Management Committee (Miri DDMC) Datuk Lee Kim Shin hopes more private medical centers and health clinics in Miri will participate as vaccination centres (PPV) to expedite the State’s vaccination programme.

According to a news report from Sarawak Public Communication Unit (Ukas) today, Lee said it was also to ensure that the National Covid-19 Immunisation Programme is a success.

“With the increased number of vaccines as announced by the Chief Minister Datuk Patinggi Abang Johari Tun Openg recently, the additional PPVs can further increase the number of vaccine recipients,” he said.
