Health Ministry issues SOP on flood management during Covid-19 pandemic to combat 'disaster within a disaster’

"In that period, four to six episodes of heavy rains are expected, with a high probability of floods. However, managing floods during a pandemic brings about its own challenges for all victims and responsible agencies,” said Health director-general Tan Sri Dr Noor Hisham Abdullah.
