KLANG (Bernama): The daily Covid-19 vaccination rate which has surpassed 420,000 doses yesterday is a good news for Malaysia to achieve herd immunity before the end of this year, Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin said.

"This is good news because it (daily vaccination rate) is among the highest in the world and if we follow the vaccination phases, I think we can achieve the number of people that needs to be vaccinated before the end of this year and the process seems to run smoothly,” he told reporters after visiting Tengku Ampuan Rahimah Hospital (HTAR) here Tuesday (July 13).
