Other ministries must help Health Ministry combat spread of Covid-19, says MMA


PETALING JAYA: The Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs Ministry (KPDNHEP) needs to ensure there is enough personal protective equipment (PPE) for healthcare workers following the rise in Covid-19 cases in the country, says the Malaysian Medical Association (MMA).

Association president Dr N Ganabaskaran (pic) said that while the Health Ministry and its personnel have been working around the clock since the spread of Covid-19 in the country, other ministries have yet to play their part in helping to combat the spread of the virus.
