CORONAVIRUS | Poor implementation of the restriction of movement order results in many unintended mass gatherings in a day.
CORONAVIRUS | Last Sunday, news of overwhelmed hospitals and dozens of daily Covid-19 deaths in distant lands became more real for Malaysians as the country, for the first time, reported a triple-digit rise of Covid-19 cases in a day.
The escalation was due to the national nature of a 16,000-strong religious gathering in Sri Petaling, where people from across the country and world, gathered for four days before returning to their hometowns, allowing the virus to spread across the country and region. Social media was abuzz about a potential shutdown and fresh foods flew off the shelves at hypermarkets and supermarkets, and long queues assembled at counters.
Despite Muhyiddin assuring that supermarkets and convenience stores will remain open, the panic buying did not stop.
