Any booster is better than no booster. Walaupun @KKMPutrajaya syorkan dos penggalak Pfizer atau AZ untuk memberi top up perlindungan yang terbaik, ada yang masih minta pilihan. We still strongly recommend a Pfizer or AZ boost. But something is better than nothing. https://t.co/iyqM4AdnhX

As revealed by Health Minister Khairy Jamaluddin, there are 3.5 million individuals fully vaccinated with Sinovac who have not yet gotten their boosters. The Ministry of Health recommends Pfizer or AstraZeneca for their booster shot as data shows that it provides higher levels of protection than a Sinovac booster. With the recent surge of daily COVID-19 cases due to Omicron, he said any booster is still better than no booster, and Sinovac recipients can get their Sinovac boosters under the National Immunisation Programme soon.
Data Global & Malaysia 🇲🇾 secara konsisten menunjukkan bahawa selepas 2 dos Sinovac, penggalak Pfizer/AZ lebih berkesan daripada dos ke-3 Sinovac, terutamanya Omicron. Dan walaupun terdapat peningkatan, titer peneutralan antibodi adalah lebih rendah.@ICR_NIH @KKMPutrajaya pic.twitter.com/HIv1TQ7CjU

Prior to this, Sinovac boosters are only offered to individuals who have allergies or can’t take mRNA vaccines. It is also available on the private market at private clinics.
Khairy has revealed yesterday that less than 50% of Malays have gotten their boosters while over 80 per cent of Chinese in Malaysia have been boosted. The breakdown also revealed that 56.4 per cent of Indians in Malaysia have been boosted while 49.6 per cent of other Bumiputra ethnic groups have been boosted. — soyacincau
