Johor moving towards endemic phase


JOHOR BARU: The Johor government is working on shifting into the endemic phase of Covid-19 by increasing its vaccination rate, including for children aged five - 12, says caretaker Mentri Besar Datuk Hasni Mohamad.

He said this was its main recommendation in ensuring that the vaccinated travel lane (VTL) programme could be enhanced and, subsequently, lead to the reopening of the Johor-Singapore border.
