Positive thoughts on vaccination programme

I REFER to the report “States can procure jabs” (The Star, April 22).

It is heartening to note the statement by National Covid-19 Immunisation Programme Coordinating Minister Khairy Jamaluddin that the Federal Government is amenable to the initiative by the Sarawak and Selangor authorities to procure vaccines on their own. The minister said the vaccines would require the approval of the National Pharmaceutical Regulatory Agency.
