Malaysia will receive the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine a week earlier before the first phase of the national Covid-19 immunisation plan begins on Feb 26, said Health Minister Adham Baba today.

He said the vaccine needed to be received earlier to enable the 7,000 individuals tasked with providing the vaccination to be vaccinated themselves.
