Private Medical Practitioners & Healthcare NGOs Participation in the National COVID-19 Immunisation Programme
The National COVID-19 Immunisation Programme is a massive nationwide exercise by the Government of Malaysia to immunise the population in Malaysia against the COVID-19 disease that has infected more than 300,000 and claimed over 1,000 lives nationwide.
The programme will be in three phases for different target groups.
Phase 1 (February – April 2021) will involve an estimated 500,000 frontliners.
Phase 2 (April – August 2021) will involve the remainder frontliners, senior citizens (aged 60 and above), high-risk group with chronic diseases and people with disabilities (OKU).
Phase 3 (May 2021 – Feb 2022) will involve the remainder of population aged 18 years and above with priority given to those in red zones.
In order to achieve herd immunity, it is vital for the estimated 23 million rakyat in Phase 2 and 3 to be vaccinated.

The MOH will seek the assistance of General Practitioners for the Immunisation Programme during Phase 2 and 3 via ProtectHealth.
