Covid-19: Health Ministry to assess need to vaccinate recovered patients, says Dr Noor Hisham


KUALA LUMPUR (Bernama): The Health Ministry (MOH) will assess the need of Covid-19 patients who have recovered to receive vaccination against the virus, says Health director-general Tan Sri Dr Noor Hisham Abdullah.

Dr Noor Hisham said the antibodies generated by former patients who experienced level one to level three of the infection with mild or no symptoms, might not be sufficient to fight against the virus, therefore they might need to be vaccinated.
