KUALA LUMPUR, May 31 — The government does not control the price of the Covid-19 vaccines administered by private health facilities following the end of the National Covid-19 Immunisation Programme for Children today, said Deputy Health Minister Datuk Dr Noor Azmi Ghazali.
“The price of vaccine will follow the ceiling price, this depends on the private sector because they have to buy the vaccine and charge on consultancy, consumables and so on, it depends on each facility and the price will vary,” he said after officiating the World No-Tobacco Day event here today. He said after this, parents will have to seek out vaccination at private clinics for a certain fee. He also said the MoH is now focused on getting children who turned five on or after May 31, fully vaccinated.
“For children who have registered for PICKids but are infected with Covid-19 they are asked to defer until they recover for at least six weeks, after which they can go to a health clinic to get an appointment to get the vaccine, which ends on August 31,” he said.
