Parents' refusal to let children get Covid-19 jabs worrying, says Dr Noor Azmi


BAGAN SERAI: Deputy Health Minister Datuk Dr Noor Azmi Ghazali (pic) has expressed concern over the attitude of parents who refuse to allow their children to receive the Covid-19 vaccine as children are vulnerable to complications of the multisystem inflammatory syndrome (MIS-C) if infected with the virus.

Therefore, Dr Noor Azmi asked parents to allow their children to be vaccinated because the percentage of children to get MIS-C symptoms after taking the Covid-19 jab was low.
