Recently, Malaysia first recorded more than 3,000 cases on the 7th of January and the number varies until it becomes the highest number for daily cases on the 23rd of January with 4,275 cases. Hospitals have been inundated, forcing the Ministry of Health (MoH) to allow patients with mild symptoms to quarantine at home.
To avoid being worse, the government has even declared a state of Emergency that is slated to last until the 1st of August to fight the pandemic. The MoH yesterday has reported 3,346 Covid-19 cases and 11 deaths but on a positive note, it reached a record high of 4,427 recoveries.
Comply with the SOPs, wear your face mask properly, wash your hands, and maintain physical distancing. Stay at home if you have no urgent matters outside. Together we can break the chain of COVID-19 transmission. We must be united and together the fight will go on InshaAllah 2/2 pic.twitter.com/FtpGAZYWml
