Health Ministry must have better planning, SOPs for GP clinics on Covid-19 screening, says MMA

PETALING JAYA: The current standard operating procedures (SOPs) by the Health Ministry in handling Covid-19 cases for general practitioners (GPs) at clinics are not practical and should be looked into again, says the Malaysian Medical Association (MMA).

MMA president Datuk Dr Subramaniam Muniandy said there was an urgent need for proper planning, coordination and a review of the current SOPs at clinics, especially with the recent ruling of compulsory Covid-19 screening for foreign workers in all sectors.
