Many welcome govt move to vaccinate delivery riders, e-hailing drivers


PETALING JAYA: As the government plans to vaccinate delivery riders, e-hailing drivers, courier delivery workers and some traders starting July, those involved believe it is a much-needed move to control the spread of the Covid-19 pandemic.

Food delivery and e-hailing driver Nik Amirrul Hafiz Bolia said he welcomed the government's move to vaccinate the group starting next month but believed that it should have been done earlier during MCO 2.0 to reduce Covid-19 cases among riders and e-hailing drivers.
