CITF, in a statement today, said these recipients are scheduled to receive the second dose, having being administered the first dose of the vaccine on May 17 at four PPVs — namely Desa Tasik Sports Complex, Muhibbah Community Sports Complex, Manjalara Community Hall and Titiwangsa Stadium.
Those originally scheduled to receive the vaccine at the Desa Tasik Sports Complex and Muhibbah Community Sports Complex on June 8, will now receive the second dose of the vaccine at the Axiata Arena Bukit Jalil, one day earlier, on June 7.
Similarly, those whose appointment date for the second dose is on June 8 at the Manjalara Community Hall and Titiwangsa Stadium, will now receive the vaccine at the Malaysia International Trade and Exhibition Centre (Mitec), on June 7.
However, appointment dates for the first dose of the vaccine, originally scheduled from June 7 to 24 at the four PPVs mentioned above, but since moved to the two mega PPVs, remain the same except for changes in time.
CITF explained that the changes in appointment dates and PPVs for the second dose were aimed at minimising congestion, thus ensuring that physical distancing is adhered to.
“It is also to ensure the comfort and safety of visitors, especially the elderly and persons with disabilities (PwDs), under the second phase of the National Covid-19 Immunisation Programme,” it said.
The four mega PPVs that will open on Monday are at the Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre (KLCC); Axiata Arena Bukit Jalil; Setia City Convention Centre (SCCC) and UiTM Puncak Alam.
