陈超耀:当务之急是让人们直接接种疫苗

砂拉越人民联合党向因冠病疫情痛失两名至亲的砂副首长丹斯里詹姆士玛欣献上真诚慰问。丹斯里詹姆士玛欣的胞弟及弟媳因感染冠病,不幸在加帛医院逝世,两人遗体昨日安葬。 砂拉越人民联合党中央秘书长拿督陈超耀律师表示,无情的冠病疫情迄今已夺走超过300条宝贵的砂拉越人性命,人联党深刻体会失去至亲与家人的砂拉越人感受,无时无刻都与他们同在,为他们祈祷。 “为了避免有更多砂拉越人因冠病疫情失去生命,我们强烈希望目前正落实的冠病疫苗接种计划能尽速推进,确保越来越多砂拉越人民接种疫苗。” 他说,世界上许多国家的数据已经证明,人们在接种冠病疫苗后,感染、染疫后出现严重症状,甚至是死亡的机率大大减低。丹斯里詹姆士玛欣的侄儿,即现任首长政治秘书尼可乐早前已接种冠病疫苗,因此他在照顾染疫的双亲时,并没有受到感染。由此可见,疫苗确实发挥保护作用。 有鉴于此,砂拉越人民联合党认为,在此时疫情严峻时期,当务之急是以最简单,最直接及最有效方式让砂拉越人接种疫苗,任何繁琐及不必要的程序都应该省略,让人们以最快的速度接种疫苗。 “冠病疫苗协调部长凯里宣布,州政府及私人医院可以自行购买冠病疫苗,包括中国国药集团生产的疫苗,以及美国摩德纳(Moderna)疫苗,只要相关疫苗获得世界卫生组织(WHO)认可,并且获得国家药剂监管机构(NPRA)批准。” 陈超耀认为,联邦政府早就应该从去年开始就让各州政府及私人医院自行购买疫苗,以加速落实疫苗接种计划。惟迟宣布好过没宣布,他希望联邦政府在这方面加速批准程序,勿有任何拖延,毕竟这是攸关人命关天的课题。 “凯里早前也表明,砂拉越从6月份起,每个星期会获得38万剂冠病疫苗。我们希望卫生部及相关当局对此做好周全的准备,确保运送砂拉越的大量疫苗能充份获得善用,让越来越多人完成接种。” 他相信砂政府及砂灾难管理委员会在这方面的能力,能给予全面配合推进疫苗接种计划。 同时,他指出,民众反映MySejahtera应用程序接种疫苗预约地点,并非是住家附近,而是在其他地区,甚至有人的接种地点是在西马,引发混淆。虽然这是属于少数案例,但当局还是有必要立即关注及纠正,避免MySejahtera系统出现不必要的漏洞,拖慢接种疫苗脚步。 他说,实际上,完全依靠MySejahtera系统登记的方式并不完全适合砂拉越,尤其是乡区部分人民没有智能手机,或不懂操作智能手机,有些地区也网络覆盖率不足,无法上网。有者即使顺利登记,也可能没有再继续检查,以致错过接种预约时间。 他强调,绝大部分人民已经等待接种疫苗多时,他们殷切期盼能赶快接种,让自己更加安心。砂拉越人民联合党认为,最重要是让人们接种疫苗,而非登记。据了解,中国有巴士流动队伍,在各地让人当场接种疫苗,这是快速且直接的方式,让人们无需进行层层登记程序及需要等待,可直接接种。毕竟防疫最重要的是接种疫苗,而不是登记数据。
