PUTRAJAYA: A risk assessment framework is being prepared to identify the frontliners that will be involved in the first phase of the Covid-19 vaccine programme, says Khairy Jamaluddin.

The Science, Technology and Innovation Minister said the government wants to ensure that those who receive the vaccines in the first phase are those who are really at risk of being exposed to the virus in undertaking their duties.
