THE Academy of Medicine of Malaysia (AMM) is concerned by the sharp increase in the number of Covid-19 cases following the Sept 26 Sabah state election. As at Oct 4, there were 1,961 active cases, with 28 of those infected currently in the intensive care unit compared with just six cases one week prior.
As it will take time to obtain a vaccine that can eradicate the virus, everyone must learn to balance living with Covid-19 with other aspects of public life, such as education, economic activities, social and religious practices, and democratic rights.
