KUALA LUMPUR, May 31 — National Covid-19 Immunisation Programme (CITF) Coordinating Minister Khairy Jamaluddin has promised to enhance the standard operating procedures (SOP) at mega vaccination centres (PPV) after concerns were raised.

He said mega PPVs as well as smaller PPVs generally strictly adhere to existing SOPs, but the recent crowding seen at the former has proven worrying.

“There have been a couple of days where mega PPVs have seen overcrowding, and I have instructed the mega PPVs to enhance their SOPs and crowd control measures to ensure there are no more instances of overcrowding,” Khairy said during a CITF press conference with Health Minister Datuk Seri Dr Adham Baba.
