Kids excited to get Covid-19 vaccine jabs


KUALA LUMPUR: Happy but nervous - that’s how 11-year-old Adam Mohd Ali said he felt after getting his vaccination under the National Covid-19 Immunisation Programme for Children (PICKids) at the Tunku Azizah Hospital here on Thursday (Feb 3).

Adam said he was also thrilled to be the second kid in the country to be vaccinated, after his friend, Ahmad Ramdhani Jafri, also 11, had been inoculated earlier by Deputy Health Minister Datuk Dr Noor Azmi Ghazali.
