Xiaomi has contributed to the newly launched mega-sized vaccination centre (PPV) at the Malaysia International Trade and Exhibition Centre (MITEC), which began operations last week. The smartphone brand is providing its support to the National Covid-19 Immunisation Programme (PICK). The contributed products, consisting of 30 units of Mi Air Purifier 3C and 200 units of 20,000mAh Redmi 18W Fast Charge Power Bank, will go to the new PPV at MITEC and its frontliners. Looking at the number of devices, we’re estimating at least RM25,000 worth of devices were contributed to the program. Great Job!

PICK, led by coordinating minister YB Khairy Jamaluddin, Minister of Science, Technology and Innovation, has recently announced the opening of several more PPVs in Selangor and Kuala Lumpur, as part of efforts to expand the capacity of dispensing vaccines. As of 8^th June, 2021, more than 3.79 million¹ Malaysians have been vaccinated, with over 12.77 million² Malaysians having registered for the vaccine, according to the Special Committee for Ensuring Access to Covid-19 Vaccine Supply (JKJAV). The PPV at MITEC, which has 51,000 square meters of event space, is expected to see over 5,000 people vaccinated daily and could increase by up to 8,000 individuals. 

Xiaomi Malaysia recently contributed Mi Air Purifier 3C’s to the centre in hopes that frontliners and those visiting are able to breathe fresher air. The Mi Air Purifier 3C uses a True HEPA filter with nanoscale filtration precision to efficiently remove fine particles such as airborne bacteria, dust and other harmful particles, with 360° circulation for high-speed purification that provides fresh breathing air in an instant. 

In addition, Xiaomi Malaysia provided 20,000mAh Redmi 18W Fast Charge Power Banks to the frontliners to help power-up their devices, especially as they are on-the-go, ensuring that they are always connected to their families and their coworkers while also enabling efficient productivity at the PPVs.
