Malaysia has so far purchased Covid-19 vaccines from Pfizer-BioNTech, AstraZeneca, China’s SinoVac Life Sciences, and through the global COVAX Facility to cover more than 40 per cent of the population.

Datuk Seri Dr S. Subramaniam, Former Minister of Health Malaysia, and Emeritus Prof PT Thomas, Executive Dean, Faculty of Health and Medical Sciences, Taylor’s University, discuss what this vaccine infrastructure would look like, and what the impending arrival of the Pfizer vaccine means for Malaysians.
