PETALING JAYA: Although the Delta sub-variant AY.4.2 should be closely monitored, it will not pose a problem in the Melaka state election as long as the public adheres strictly to the standard operating procedure set to prevent a new wave of infections, say health experts.
Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia epidemiologist Assoc Prof Dr Azmi Mohd Tamil said it is still too early to tell whether the Delta sub-variant would pose a greater risk to public health than the standard Delta variant.
