BEKENU: Bekenu Community Hall vaccination centre (PPV) chief Dr Monica says the Bekenu PPV and Sepupok Niah PPV will increase the vaccine doses to 1,000 per day.
She added that with two more PPVs opening, making it five in Subis, the doses would increase to 2,600 per day.
Meanwhile, vaccine recipients at the Bekenu Community Hall vaccination centre (PPV) were delighted to receive their jabs.
