Covid-19: Conditional MCO can be lifted if Malaysia 'flattens the curve', says Health DG


PUTRAJAYA: The conditional movement control order (MCO) imposed in most states until December can be shortened if Malaysia manages to “flatten the curve” of Covid-19 infections, says the Health Ministry.

“The projection for the conditional MCO is for it to be implemented for another four weeks. But if we manage to flatten the curve, we can lift the conditional MCO earlier and go back to the recovery MCO phase.
