Need for clarity on vaccination programme

I RECENTLY read with relief news that the government is rolling out a RM15bil Permai aid package to help the country cope with the increasing number of Covid-19 cases as well as the economic fallout from the movement control order (MCO).

As a frontliner, I am gratified to note that healthcare is one of the largest recipients of this current aid programme. Among the various health initiatives, the one that stood out for me is the RM150mil allocation to hire an additional 3,500 healthcare workers, some of whom are expected to start work by the end of this month.
