The royal family is getting a lot of heat from Malaysians after allegations surfaced that they have taken unapproved vaccines courtesy of friends in the United Arab Emirates.
The family has yet to publicly address allegations claiming that they have obtained the Sinopharm vaccine that were published in the
Asia Sentinel on Friday, citing unnamed sources. Even Queen Azizah Aminah Maimunah Iskandariah, 60, who is the most active on social media within the family, had refrained from commenting on the matter despite pressure from the public. She did post one cryptic message on Instagram today after her account went dark on Monday.
