The Health Ministry is not forcing employers to get Covid-19 booster jabs for foreign workers they bring into the country, says Dr Zaliha Mustafa.

The Health Minister said this in the Dewan Rakyat on Wednesday (March 8) when replying to Syed Saddiq Syed Abdul Rahman (Muda-Muar) who asked if recent reports were true regarding losses suffered by Pharmaniaga Bhd due to overstocking of Covid-19 vaccines and that the Health Ministry was forcing employers to bear the cost of providing booster jabs for foreign workers brought into the country.
