Numbers don’t matter anymore, serious cases do, say experts

PETALING JAYA: Public perception of Covid-19 baseline cases will have to change in view of the country’s rising infectivity rate (Rt), says a Universiti Malaya expert.

“A total of 40,000 daily cases may now be the ‘new’ 10,000 daily cases of last year,” said professor of epidemiology and public health Dr Sanjay Rampal.
