Health DG: We have not won, we have not lost Covid-19 war


PUTRAJAYA: Although an exponential rise of Covid-19 cases has not been seen throughout the movement control order (MCO) period so far, the Health Ministry warns that Malaysia’s war against the disease is not over yet.

Health director-general Datuk Dr Noor Hisham Abdullah on Wednesday (April 8) said the government was still closely monitoring its Covid-19 data closely before deciding if the MCO should be extended beyond April 14.
