A press release was shared early today pertaining to the walk-in registration for the COVID-19 booster shots programme. It was released by ProtectHealth Corporation via Twitter. ProtectHealth is a wholly-owned subsidiary of ProtectHealth Malaysia, established under the Ministry of Health Malaysia (MOH). According to the press release, here is some key information the public must be aware of prior to the registration. The Registration of Individuals Apart from walking in to register, it's now confirmed that it can also be made via phone call and also e-mail. The general public can refer to a complete list of private health facility PPVs on the ProtectHealth website effective this 22nd November 2021. The list will be periodically updated. Individuals are also advised to register at only one PPV of a private health facility to avoid instances of double booking. Those successfully registered will be placed on a waitlist and will be contacted by the PPV in the advent of any cancellation. The same applies to those receiving their appointments via MySejahtera. Those already receiving their appointment confirmation from MySejahtera, do ensure to: proceed to the designated PPV as stated not put yourself on any waitlist Registration for the waitlist at PPVs of private health facilities under ProtectHealth is also free. Additionally, only Corminaty vaccine (Pfizer-BioNTech) is provided at the list PPVs as of now. Eligibility of Individuals All three registration platforms—walk-ins, telephone, and e-mail apply to those yet to receive their appointments, who are: Frontliners Adults aged 40 years and above Adults aged 18 years and above with no comorbidities Long term care facilities individuals (staff and residents) Pregnant mothers Those traveling abroad Furthermore, those who have yet to receive or missed their first and/or second doses of COVID-19 vaccination are also eligible. This includes adolescents aged between 12 to 17 years old. The Health Ministry alongside ProtectHealth believes this approach encourages those eligible for the doses to proceed with their vaccination immediately without having to wait. It also ensures optimal usage of the vaccine with no wastages. Protect Yourself and others via Vaccination The government and ProtectHealth urge all of those already receiving their appointments to obtain their vaccine immediately. ProtectHealth, through private medical professionals and healthcare NGOs, will continue to collaborate with the Ministry of Health to further maximise the National COVID-19 Immunisation Programme. The fight against the COVID-19 pandemic may have transitioned into an endemic phase but that does not mean the virus has subsided. For the Malaysian community to fully coexist with the virus, every citizen must play their part in the vaccination programme alongside adhering to other COVID-19 measures stringently. Together, we can surely overcome this. For more insightful reads, updates, and fun recipes, stay tuned to Motherhood Story!
