Public statements by Ministers in the new government have revealed that 2.8 million vaccine doses worth RM81.4 millionexpired up to February this year and a further 8 million, costing perhaps a further RM230 million will expire by September due to over-purchasing and a collapse in public confidence in the vaccine programme which has seen booster shot take-up fall dramatically.
5. Vaccine safety issues and the role of the National Pharmaceutical Regulatory Authority (NPRA)

Independent reappraisal of Pfizer vaccine trial data has found that 1 person in 800 is likely experience adverse side effects from the vaccine.
It is necessary to review how the NPRA came to approve the use of the Pfizer vaccine upon the general population of Malaysia. Once again, the DG of health Nor Hisham must answer this query.
It must also be noted that the present minister of health Dr Zaliha Mustafa is still promoting vaccines to Malaysia’s general population, even though the extent of adverse side effects is now clearly known from recent scientific data on mRNA vaccines. Pfizer in a press release on 27th January have also raised these concerns and put question upon about the efficacy of their own product.
Many pregnant women and their off-spring are suffering adverse effects now. Pfizer cautions pregnant women over the vaccine.
Administrating Covid-19 vaccines is still MOH policy. The question is why has Noor Hisham not raise alarms as data became clear about the changing cost/benefit ratio of the vaccines, and potentially dangerous side effects.

Noor Hisham was dismissive of adverse effects, from vaccinations, and continued to encourage vaccination, without consideration of changing risk/benefit analysis. A number of countries like Australia and the United Kingdom have recently radically changed their recommendations concerning vaccines due to new information arising on adverse effects.
