This is to provide reassurance to the public as well as to be in line with the country's Covid-19 recovery plans in regards to bringing government services to a fully operational level.
According to the official statement, any federal government employees failing to comply without valid medical reason accompanied by exemption from government medical officers will be subjected to disciplinary action.
Those who have yet to receive their appointment can simply walk into vaccination centers provided for by the government.
