Health Ministry denounces false ISR shot claims circulating on social media

Health DG dismisses rumours, claiming that no such vaccine exists

9:16 AM MYT

 

KUALA LUMPUR – The Health Ministry has refuted several social media posts alleging forcibly administered “ISR shots” in Malaysia.

Health Director-General Datuk Dr Muhammad Radzi Abu Hassan said such a vaccine does not exist, and the ministry has never issued any such directive.

“This is pure slander and a baseless accusation that can cause anxiety among the Malaysian public and tarnish the ministry’s image.

“Those responsible for this misinformation have caused public confusion. Members of the public also have to stop spreading false and unverified information,” he said in a statement yesterday.

Meanwhile, the draft of the Pandemic Treaty of the World Health Organisation (WHO) Convention Agreement (WHO CA+) and the amendment of the International Health Regulations (IHR 2005) are set to be presented at the 77th World Health Assembly in May next year.

He said several discussion and negotiation sessions on the Intergovernmental Negotiating Body (INB) and Working Group on Amendments to the International Health Regulations (WGIHR) are ongoing until April next year.

“To date, negotiations for the preparation of the INB WHO CA+ document are still at an early stage, and nothing is agreed until everything is agreed.”

In October, Dr Radzi said Malaysia’s position is always to protect the interests of public health and the country’s sovereignty.

WHO and all member states have agreed to establish two international negotiation platforms, INB to produce an international instrument known as the INB WHO CA+ (pandemic treaty) and WGIHR. 

This is to strengthen the aspects of preparedness, prevention, detection, and response to pandemics at the international level to reduce the impact on a country in particular. – November 12, 2023
