Consider This: Vaccines (Part 1) - Unnecessarily Long Approval Process?
  • 2 tahun lalu
The news of Malaysia inking vaccine procurement deals with pharmaceutical companies have been overshadowed by the question of how long it will take for these vaccines to be approved. Director-general of Health had said that regulatory approval for the vaccine could take between 3 to 4 months, but though the ministry is aiming for less than 90 days. This comes a day after Singapore already received its first shipment of vaccines -- a week after it had issued regulatory approvals -- as has many countries around the world. Are we behind the curve? Melisa Idris and Sharaad Kuttan speak to Dr Khor Swee Kheng, Co-founder, Malaysian Health Coalition.
