PUTRAJAYA: The Health Ministry is in talks with a Covid-19 vaccine maker to procure vaccines for children aged below 12.

       Without naming the company, Health Minister Khairy Jamaluddin said the vaccine maker is in the midst of submitting clinical data on the vaccines, which could be administered to children.

       Currently, Malaysia has started vaccinating adolescents aged 12 to 17, after more than 80% of its adult population have been fully vaccinated.
