KUALA KANGSAR (Bernama): The Health Ministry is intensifying its "Avoid Close Contact" campaign as a measure to prevent a second wave of Covid-19 infections in the country, says Datuk Seri Dr Adham Baba.

The Health Minister said it was necessary to educate the public to avoid talking while standing close to each other, as small water droplets are released into the air and could land on others as far as one metre away.
