SEREMBAN: The National Security Council needs to review its decision to relax Covid-19 mitigation steps, such as allowing Ramadan bazaars to open, following a spike in cases and the emergence of other variants in Malaysia, says Khairy Jamaludin.

Khairy, who is Coordinating Minister for the National Covid-19 Immunisation Programme, said this was necessary as there was a real possibility of Malaysia being hit by a “fourth wave”.
