Good morning all. I will be live tweeting my AstraZeneca experience this morning. I am at the UM centre for my 9am appointment. Parked at 8.30am. Lots of easy to follow signs the moment you drive into UM. #AstraZeneca

Could see a lot of people were here very early ahead of their slot. Everyone excitedly heading into the UM exam hall building. #AstraZeneca

Scan your MySejahtera and then show the people at the entrance your AZ appointment on the app. And we are heading in. #AstraZeneca

I am now waiting at Station 1. The general waiting area. This was at 8.40am. So many people are here already. I see all ages. It is also sad to see so many elderly here where they should already be able to be in the phase 2 rollout. #AstraZeneca

I am number 71. Still waiting at Station 1. But very efficient. At 8.45am, people are being advanced through the stations already. #AstraZeneca

Moved on to Station 2. This is the proper registration counter. Get your MySejahtera app out to be ready to scan your AZ specific QR #AstraZeneca

You will need your AZ appointment page on MySejahtera and to scan this QR code. Answer some basic questions. We are through Station 2! #AstraZeneca

Very fast Station 3. Tick through the consent form and sign. You are being assessed whether you need a 15 minute monitoring after or a 30 minute monitoring after the jab. #AstraZeneca

Where the magic will happen. Station 4. 10 cubicles for very fast injections. Moving through the stations too quickly. Can’t tweet fast enough #AstraZeneca

I have received my first AZ jab already. I didn’t even feel the needle going in. I am vaccinated (first dose)! #AstraZeneca

The only hiccup in the process so far. Right after the jab, you have to look for a specific counter to use your AZ QR code. A bit of confusion over here. Remember which cubicle you went into and tell the officer. Need to log in your AZ code into the app. Done! #AstraZeneca

The AZ QR code in MySejahtera will confirm your first dose. Then only leave the station. #AstraZeneca

You have to be responsible to time your own 15 minutes wait or the 30 minutes wait after the jab. I have finished my 15 minutes. Off to the final station #AstraZeneca

Ah. I see my MySejahtera AZ details updated already. My 15 minutes wait time is up. I feel completely fine #AstraZeneca

The final station. To get your vaccine card. Very smooth process from start to finish. No major hiccups despite it being the first day of roll out and being the first few people. Great job to the officers and volunteers at the UM station #AstraZeneca

I look forward to being back at UM in 12 weeks time. No appointment date is fixed yet. Your MySejahtera app will push out the appointment date. #AstraZeneca

Don’t forget to take the obligatory photo booth shot after you exit the hall. #AstraZeneca

Right now, I only feel a very slight soreness on my left arm from the injection. I will update if I feel any side effects and I will also update this thread at the end of today.

Didn’t realise that I should have used #CucukMYAZ ? Entered the UM hall at 8.40am, longest wait was 30 minutes at the Station 1 waiting area, and out of the hall just after 10am. Am sure the roll-out will only get smoother. Praise to the organisers and the MySejahtera system

A number of you have asked. No, you don’t immediately get your 2nd dose appointment. Final station officer said it will be at the 12-week mark. Wait for MySejahtera to push out the appointment date. After 1st dose, you will see your app updated #CucukMYAZ #AstraZeneca

Started a separate thread to detail the (mild) side effects I now have several hours after my jab. Hope everyone has a smooth AZ vaccination experience! #CucukMYAZ
