Declaring emergency does not stop Covid-19 cases from increasing
  • 3 years ago
Kulai MP Teo Nie Ching has called on the Perikatan Nasional government of Muhyiddin Yassin to change its strategy to a proactive one, saying that having more than 5,000 new Covid-19 cases for three consecutive days is proof that the emergency declaration was pointless.

"What needs to be done, now and today, is to start being proactive and not reactive. The Health Ministry and the National Security Council chaired by the prime minister need to drastically improvise on contact tracing methods in terms of speed and urgency as more people are carrying the virus now."
