Initial Phase
"Hello, do you all provide vaccines?"
"At the moment, we are still awaiting from directions from the government. If you are interested, you may leave your particulars with us and we'll contact you once we get further orders. In the meantime, it is best if you check with your mySejahtera app as well to keep up to date with the government."
"Why would I want to register in the mySejahtera app? I want to be jabbed under your side.. I don't trust the government!"
"Please understand that the vaccines are currently being rolled out for the first phase, but we won't know when till we get further orders."
"I don't mind waiting till you all will contact me, by the way, I demand for Pfizer only."
"Apologies, you are not allowed to choose the vaccine, it depends on what the government gives."
''I DEMAND TO GET PFIZER ONLY! I DON'T TRUST OTHER VACCINES, DO YOU UNDERSTAND?!"
"Alright, we'll put it a remark, but again, the government decides, not us..."
Current Phase
"Hello, do you all provide vaccines?"
"At the moment, we are still awaiting from directions from the government. If you are interested, you may leave your particulars with us and we'll contact you once we get further orders. In the meantime, it is best if you check with your mySejahtera app as well to keep up to date with the government."
''I have already put my name under your side. You mean the vaccines hasn't come yet?"
"So far, we haven't hear anything from the government yet."
"But Astra Zeneca are already being distributed outside. You mean your side still haven't gotten the vaccines yet?"
"Apologies, no. If you want, you can register yourself under the Astra Zeneca vaccines."
"ARE YOU TRYING TO KILL ME?!"
"So far I have friends and families who have taken the vaccines, so far they are all doing fine..."
"I DEMAND FOR PFIZER, OR AT THE VERY LEAST SINOVAC!!!! Do you want money? How much do you want? I'll pay you."
"I'm sorry, I do not want your money. Furthermore, the vaccines are not for sale. It is decided by the government, and only the government will have the final say. We'll contact you when the vaccines comes. Thank you."
We have already gone through the pandemic, and yet people are still being absolutely ignorant. Honest to God, now that you have the chance to get the vaccine, get yourself the jab for crying out loud. Several people joked with me, if you're going to go six feet under, might as well just get the jab than to suffer. The problem is...we humans are so...random. People had wanted the Pfizer vaccine because they heard many good stuff about it, but then when they heard some people died even after their full vaccination due to prolonged exposure to Covid, they shifted their sight to Sinovac. Then when they heard Sinovac percentage is slightly lower, they shift back to Pfizer. When negative news came out surrounding the Astra Zeneca came out, everyone were screaming that they refuse to take it. Funny thing is, these are the same folks who went to fought tooth and nail to get the vaccination slot.
What I'm trying to say is...It's good to get vaccinated when the silver platter is offered to you, regardless of your age. Yes, vaccination has side effects. Which vaccines doesn't? Minor effects such as fever, migraines, numbness at the injection site are fine, but severe ones such as fainting, allergic reactions, prolonged fever are the ones that are alarming. Trust me, you do not want to get Miss Rona, I cannot imagine the crushing feeling of despair of those who were infected. You can easily Google covid experience where you can find several posts of the public sharing their perspective. Some weren't so severe, but some are outright depressing. Most of it comes from plain stubbornness and ignorance, sad but true. Every time when I take down history, I often get this answer: "'I went out with this one friend, JUST THIS ONE FRIEND. They are well, no issues at all, but then few days later, the same friend developed symptoms, and then we have to get tested because we are close contact." One thing leads to another, if you are lucky, thank God. If not...well, I'll leave it to your imagination.
One thing that really ticks me off are the people who flaunt the pandemic without regards to others. Not just flaunting, but outright lying to security, as in, during screening, they deny all symptoms, then went inside, risking everyone's health. Please, don't do that, don't be selfish and put everyone in jeopardy. At the same time, keep wearing your masks despite being fully vaccinated, wash your hands, stay a safe distance and stay safe. Just because you are fully vaccinated doesn't mean that you won't get Miss Rona anymore, you'll still get it if your immunity is low. If you feel lonely, just send a whatsapp, call, write letters or email your friends and families.
One last reminder, if you got the chance to take the vaccine, take it. Don't waste the opening. And stop thinking this is like a mall. You cannot choose your vaccines, it depends on what the government gives, most importantly, DO NOT WALK IN WITHOUT AN APPOINTMENT!!! Register for the vaccination appointment and get yourself vaccinated. http://covid-19.moh.gov.my/vaksin-covid-19
