About 76,000 Sabahans have received their Covid-19 booster shots so far, which accounts for seven per cent of the State’s population, said Community Development and People’s Wellbeing Minister Datuk Shahelmey Yahya.
Shahelmey, who is also the appointed director of Sabah’s immunisation programme, said the vaccination rate of booster shots is expected to peak in January next year. He explained that the slow rate was due to many still being ineligible for the booster dose
