“The MySejahtera application provides appointment registration for smoking rehabilitation services, outpatient treatments, family planning services, wound treatment services and tube changes, national health screenings, Peka B40 health screenings and more,” she said regarding MySejahtera's current services.

On a seperate matter, Zaliha said that the government will continue giving human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccines to Form 1 girls this year, after acquiring 100,000 doses of the vaccine.

"In 2021, the HPV vaccination initiative to Form 1 girls for the prevention of cervical cancer was postponed following a disruption of global HPV vaccine supply," she said.
