Some 157,000 Sinovac booster doses had been allocated for the first phase of the Selangor state government’s SelVAX vaccination programme for those who had completed their first two COVID-19 vaccination doses.
Previously allowed for walk-in, the overwhelming response led to an immediate change of procedures. Folks who are interested in the Sinovac booster dose will now have to register via the Selangkah mobile application.
Here's a simple step-by-step guide on how to register for a slot!
- Download the 'Selangkah' App
- On the main screen, click on 'SelVAX' > Self Booking > Booster Dose
- Fill in your personal details
- Verify with OTP (One-time PIN)
- Choose your location and date of vaccination appointment
- Include voucher code before checkout
- Bring your phone to your vaccination appointment
Users would need to input the voucher code specific to their preferred SelCARE clinic after selecting an appointment time via the app, or would otherwise be charged for the vaccine. Those who had successfully completed their booking would also need to bring along the confirmation slip (receipt) for their appointments.
Listed below are SelCARE clinics along with their respective locations and voucher codes -
"There will only be 150 slots available at each Selcare clinic offering the booster doses," said state public health, unity, women empowerment and family committee chairman Dr Siti Mariah Mahmud.
On 7 December, the Selangor state government announced that it was offering free Sinovac booster jabs to Selangor folk, regardless of whether or not they were previously recipients under the SelVAX programme.
