PETALING JAYA: It will take about one week for the Health Ministry to determine if the conditional movement control order (MCO) in the Klang Valley achieves its intended result of flattening the Covid-19 curve, says Tan Sri Dr Noor Hisham Abdullah.

The Health director-general said it was still too early to get any projections or certainties on whether the conditional MCO in Kuala Lumpur, Selangor, and Putrajaya could be extended as it only takes effect on Wednesday (Oct 14).
