KUALA LUMPUR: The Health Ministry (MOH) denied a viral message that says the government will erase the MySejahtera digital certificates of those who do not take their COVID-19 booster shots, according to a statement by the Communications and Multimedia Ministry (K-KOMM) Quick Response Team today.

The MOH clarified that the vaccination status of all Sinovac vaccine recipients aged 18 years and above, as well as recipients of all types of primary dose vaccines, aged 60 years and above who have not received a booster dose despite being eligible for it, will only lose their "fully vaccinated" status and the digital certificates will not be erased.

The public is advised not to spread false information that can cause confusion and anxiety in the community, but instead refer to the MOH's official social media to get the authentic and latest information.
