TODAY marks Day 5 of the movement control order (MCO) enforced by the National Security Council to prevent the spread of Covid-19 (carried by the coronavirus known as SARS-CoV-2), in the country. I understand many of us panicked in the beginning, not knowing exactly what to do and how to adhere to the MCO properly. Now, it is becoming much clearer.
The MCO aims to enforce social distancing, to ensure that Malaysians stay home to prevent the spread of Covid-19 through human contact or close proximity with those who are suspected to be carrying the virus. Essentially, the Government wants to flatten the curve to slow the virus down. This can save hundreds of thousands of lives. Even for those who don’t experience symptoms, it could be possible that they are carriers of the Covid-19 virus.
