BHARU: Kelantan Mufti, Datuk Mohamad Shukri Mohamad, said that his experience after being infected with Covid-19 last year, and having to be treated in hospital for 16 days, made him realise the importance of vaccination.
Therefore, he advised the public, especially those aged 60 and above, not to worry about the vaccine administered because it did not contain banned substances.
“I urge Muslims who will be receiving the Covid-19 shots to do so with full confidence. The public need not worry because it does not hurt at all. Maybe, a slight tingling in the shoulder after the injection, if any,” he said.
It has been a year since Covid-19 hit the country, yet the staff of the Ministry of Health (MoH) are still committed and working tirelessly in the fight against the deadly pandemic. A posting by the MoH on its Facebook read that work continues as usual by all top management of the MoH and also the ministry's frontliners at hospitals, the Crisis Preparedness and Response Centre (CPRC), Covid-19 assessment centres (CAC) and clinics nationwide.
