Entering Phase 2 of COVID-19 Vaccination: Who’s Eligible?

April marks the 2nd phase of the National COVID-19 Immunisation Programme. While it has been reported that this phase covers the elderly and those with co-morbidities, who exactly is eligible for the jabs, and why is it important for them to be prioritised above the general population? We get the answers from Dr Ho Bee Kiau, Family Medicine Specialist from the Selangor State Health Department.
