KLANG: While there are some who are afraid of getting inoculated against Covid-19 because of various conspiracy theories, one plucky 101-year-old great-great-grandmother took it in her stride to complete her second dose.

The mother of nine – as well as grandmother, great-grandmother and even great-great grandmother of many – Khoo Swee received her second dose of the Sinovac vaccine at the KPJ Klang Specialist Hospital.
