LANGKAWI (March 7): Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad and his wife Tun Dr Siti Hasmah Mohamad Ali received their first Covid-19 vaccine jab here today, and the former prime minister immediately urged the people to sign up for the immunisation programme.
Dr Mahathir, 95, was administered the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine by Kuah Health Clinic matron Rosmini Che Lah, while Dr Siti Hasmah was given her jab by the clinic’s head nurse Siti Hamizah Masdar at the Vaccine Dispensing Centre at the Langkawi Sports Complex.
Dr Mahathir said he did not feel any side effects after being vaccinated.
“I did not feel anything at all and the injection was over in less than a minute. I did not feel any headache, and I hope all Malaysians will get vaccinated in order for us to fight Covid-19. This vaccine will give us protection,” he told reporters after receiving the vaccine.
