With the worrying spike in Covid-19 cases nationwide, the Government is working hard to raise awareness in the community to participate in the vaccination programme.

Indie publishing company Buku Fixi has joined in to help by supporting the vaccination programme from the sidelines in its own novel way... literally. In the Klang Valley, you can get a Covid-19 shot and receive a free book from Fixi.
