Sunway Medical Centre
Kicked Off COVID-19
Vaccination for Children
with Celebration
Greeted by
a delightful
welcome, parents
who chose Sunway
Medical Centre,
Sunway City, for
their children’s
much-awaited
COVID-19
vaccination were
pleasantly
surprised by the
hospital’s efforts in making this experience a childrenfriendly
affair.
The campaign kicked off in February. On top of the
party-feel surroundings, the hospital also prepared a
special care kit for the first 400 children, consisting of
children’s masks, a hand sanitiser, a pack of plasters
and a little message to encourage them. The
hospital’s very own mascot, ELFY, made an
appearance with Bellabot, the delivery bot which
serves at the children’s ward. Besides that, they were
also given specially designed vaccination certificates
with ELFY stickers to stamp their first dose completion.
Sunway Medical Centre is starting with 400 doses
weekly for children vaccination on Thursdays and
Fridays and hopes to increase their capacity
subsequently. This is by appointment only via
MySejahtera. Besides COVID-19 vaccination for
children, the hospital continues to administer booster
shots for adults and is open for walk-ins on Mondays
and Tuesdays. www.sunwaymedical.com

For Your Sweetheart Campaign Addresses the
Rising Cases of Diabetes in Malaysia
For Your Sweetheart Campaign invites all Malaysians to keep themselves and their loved
ones healthy with a FREE Diabetes HbA1c Screening at participating clinics nationwide,
particularly during the year-end festivities and feasting.
The National Diabetes Registry Report 2013-2019 showed that an alarming number of diabetes
patients in Malaysia suffer from heart disease. Awareness and the knowledge of whether one has
diabetes or risks for developing diabetes is the first step towards managing the complication of
diabetes-related heart diseases. This is even more crucial amid the Covid-19 crisis that we are all
facing, as people with diabetes are also at high risk for severe Covid-19 infection and death.
Therefore, early detection, prevention and treatment are vital in addressing this issue.
Log on to www.foryoursweetheart.my to register for the Free Screening today! Each outlet/clinic has a limited number of
vouchers available. It is on a first-come-first-served basis, and new locations will be updated monthly.
