Khairy: MySejahtera’s credibility ‘tainted’ but can be used for NCD screening

  • 2 years ago
Malaysia has plans to expand the MySejahtera app for purposes other than its original Covid-19 screening, monitoring and verification.

This was revealed by Health Minister Khairy Jamaluddin during the 75th World Health Assembly in Geneva, Switzerland.

News portal Code Blue reported that Khairy talked about how the app's Covid-19 functions are now seen as "tainted" but yet could be repurposed to tackle the non-communicable disease crisis in Malaysia.

Khairy said he understood the complete fatigue with the Covid-19 app, but the country will not get the same once in a generational population-wide enrolment onto an app like this.
