PETALING JAYA: Different Covid-19 variants could be causing the sharp increase in Covid-19 cases in the country, says prominent Malaysian virologist Prof Emeritus Datuk Dr Lam Sai Kit.
Lam, known for heading the medical team that discovered the Nipah virus, noted the country was doing “far too few genome sequencing on Covid-19 samples” and may have missed cases caused by the variants.
