With the rising number of cases, most people want to get vaccinated quickly. However, certain categories of people, such as pregnant and breastfeeding women can only take particular vaccines.
In the prior MySejahtera updates, there wasn’t an option for pregnant and breastfeeding women to update their status. However, on 2 June, CITF sent out a tweet stating that the aforementioned group of people will now be able to update their status on MySejahtera.
Jika anda ibu mengandung atau sedang menyusu, anda kini boleh mengemaskini status anda di MySejahtera. Janji temu vaksinasi anda akan diberikan berdasarkan jenis vaksin yang sesuai untuk anda.

Soon-to-be mothers also have the option of postponing till after birth. This vaccine is also suitable for breastfeeding mothers. The AstraZeneca vaccine is not suitable for pregnant women but suitable for breastfeeding mummies.
