IT was not much of a surprise when Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin announced a further extension of the movement control order (MCO), this time until May 12. The writing was already on the wall with constant indicators that we were in for the long haul with the Covid-19 pandemic.
Although trials have started on human volunteers in the United Kingdom, we are still some time away from any vaccines being proven effective and made available to the global community. We have to devise a strategic exit plan incorporating the socio-economic needs of the people and basic human rights (need to move freely) with long term health as the complementing factor. The older generation has always emphasised the importance of getting enough sun to boost the natural immunity of a person. Hence, it is humbly opined that we should be allowed outside to get enough sun during the MCO period.
