SHAH ALAM, Sept 9 — The government has allowed fully vaccinated recipients under the Selangor Vaccination Programme (Selvax) to use their SELangkah digital vaccination certificates.

Health Minister Khairy Jamaluddin said the digital vaccination certificate could be used as a temporary verification document if the vaccine recipients had not received the certificate on their MySejahtera application.

"The government give permission for fully vaccinated individuals under Selvax to use the SELangkah certificate before receiving the confirmation certificate from MySejahtera," he said during a press conference today.

Yesterday, the Selangor government has requested the Covid-19 Immunisation Task Force (CITF) to allow vaccine recipients under Selvax to use their SELangkah digital vaccination certificates temporarily.

According to state executive councillor for public health Dr Siti Mariah Mahmud, SELangkah has sent records of 159,919 Selvax recipients to MySejahtera but 3,632 individuals have yet to receive their digital vaccination certificates.
