PETALING JAYA: The National Recovery Council (NRC) will discuss with the Health Ministry about changing the transition thresholds in the National Recovery Plan (NRP) as more Malaysians get vaccinated.

NRP coordinating minister Tengku Datuk Seri Zafrul Abdul Aziz (pic) said there were examples of a significant drop in hospital and intensive care unit admissions in countries such as the United Kingdom where vaccination rates were around 40%, indicating that the number of serious cases dropped as more people get vaccinated.
