Long trip: Tan had to drive from Muar to Johor Baru to get his wife vaccinated.

JOHOR BARU: While senior citizens are grateful to the government for planning a booster shot, many are hoping the authorities relook the way the vaccination appointment is being given out as some are forced to travel almost 200km to get their vaccination.

They are hoping that those requiring booster shots will be allowed to just walk into the nearest vaccination centre to their home.
