PAGOH: The time has come for the government to come up with drastic measures to address the issue of anti-vaxxers, including making vaccinations mandatory, says Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin.

The National Recovery Council chairman said although the number of anti-vaxxers was negligible, at between 5% and 10%, they could still hamper the country’s recovery targets.
