PETALING JAYA: In the course of just one week from Jan 17, the country recorded 28,706 new Covid-19 cases, which account for 15.6% of the total cases since the beginning of the pandemic in January last year.

The healthcare system has been burdened with many frontliners suffering burnout.

To further curb the spread of infection, health experts believe that stricter measures should be implemented at sources of infection such as at the workplace and have urged the public to comply with the government’s standard operating procedure (SOP).
