PUTRAJAYA: After more than a year of taking risks covering events in the midst of the Covid-19 pandemic, journalists can now truly feel like being frontliners.

The Star’s Putrajaya bureau chief Mazwin Nik Anis and the newspaper’s photographers Azhar Mahfof and Shaari Che Mat were among 98 media practitioners based in the Klang Valley to receive their first Covid-19 vaccinations yesterday.
