World Immunisation Week falls on the last week of April every year, and this year, the theme is #VaccinesWorkForAll. We speak to Prof Datuk Dr Lokman Hakim, Pro Vice Chancellor, for Research, at International Medical University, about Malaysia’s priorities when it comes to vaccination, with immunisation targets potentially being severely challenged by increasing vaccine hesitancy and the COVID-19 pandemic.
