MELAKA: Fire and Rescue personnel who refuse to get Covid-19 vaccinations without valid reasons will be asked to attend counselling sessions, says Datuk Seri Mohammad Hamdan Wahid.

The Fire and Rescue Department’s director-general said 95% of the 12,500 firemen across the country had been vaccinated while 3% had cited medical reasons for not getting jabbed.
