- Bernama KUALA LUMPUR (Bernama): Laden with an ice box, needles, personal protective equipment and other items, the team of volunteers and medical officers stepped out of their van on a narrow kampung road in Beranang, Selangor, one hot Tuesday morning recently. At least the rain has stopped, mused a volunteer as the six-person group made their way uphill on a dirt road. It was uncomfortably humid and the equipment they carried was heavy but that trip on July 6 was necessary to protect bedridden and disabled people – those who are unable to go to Covid-19 vaccination centres (PPV). It was the first day of the door-to-door Covid-19 vaccination programme by medical non-governmental organisations (NGOs) such as Mercy Malaysia, Islamic Medical Association of Malaysia Response & Relief Team and the National Cancer Society, aided by the Social Welfare Department (JKM) and the Health Ministry.
