According to a report by The Star, Health Minister Datuk Seri Dr Adham Baba said that the country would be producing not one, but two types of COVID-19 vaccines.
Developed by a group of researchers from the Institute for Medical Research (IMR), the two vaccines are the ribonucleic acid vaccine or messenger RNA vaccine (mRNA) and inactivated vaccine types.
A step towards the future
"It is part of our efforts to increase our capacity for vaccine development, as well as in preparing for future pandemics," said Dr Adham via a statement.
Currently, there are three different vaccines offered to Malaysians - Pfizer-BioNTech, Sinovac and AstaZeneca.
We hope that all goes well with this plan.
