In a public post on her social media, DAP MP Yeo Bee Yin congratulated current Minister of Science, Technology, and Innovation and Coordinating Minister for COVID-19 Immunisation Khairy Jamaluddin from UMNO on the team’s success in vaccine distribution.
The promised 150,000 daily average
Beginning 1 June 2021, the country’s goal was to distribute 150,000 doses of vaccine a day in a bid to ramp up the vaccination rate.
In the first week of June, we did not achieve the daily goal at all, with the highest vaccine distribution at a mere 117,563.
However, in the second week on June, there was a significant increase in dosages provided, as we achieved the 150,000 dose per day goal a majority of the time.
Still, more effort is needed to catch up to the original planned vaccine rate.
To reach 150,000 d/day for June, we’ll need ave vaccination rate of 176,262 d/day for the next 16 days. All the best!
MP Yeo Bee Yin
