“It will be a joint decision after taking into account views from the various ministries, not just from the Health Ministry since this involves tourism and economic growth as well as public safety,” she said. “Tomorrow, we will present the facts that we have gathered and any related possibilities. God willing, we hope to come up with the best solution that is a balanced decision based on science and data as well as community perception,” she said.
Zaliha said the arrival of foreign tourists at the two airports was being monitored without any discrimination so far and if they were found to be unwell, they would be sent to the nearest health facility.
