MOH preparing for possible Covid-19 winter spike, says Health DG

PUTRAJAYA (Bernama): The Health Ministry is already looking four months ahead by preparing for a possible spike of Covid-19 infections due to winter weather conditions in several other parts of the world.

Health director-general Tan Sri Dr Noor Hisham Abdullah said although the country’s infection rate is now under control, developments in other countries, such as India, South Korea, Japan, Spain and France where an increase in cases during cold weather conditions, must be considered.
