JULY 12 — I am proud to say, that looking at our Covid-19 numbers, yes- despite some irregularities and queries, Malaysia has done very well to control this notorious pandemic .Despite my ranting on social media that many are not following SOPs- and I have received much backlash openly and privately, I wish to share some stories or ‘case reports’ with all of you on how we are still a ticking-timebomb.
Case report 3: The public’s approach to SOPs- masking, writing down name/contact number/scanning QR codes etc. Seeing patients come into clinics/hospitals these days is a scary chore. I see many patients coming in refusing to scan the MySejahtera app and refusing to put their details etc. Some that do- put false names and cartoon characters with fake phone numbers. Unfortunately, our rakyat seem to see the funny side of this more than the seriousness of it. Many argue back when asked to abide by the SOPs.
KKM has done a fantastic job in controlling the Covid-19, but I think we can do much better in not only educating/re-educating but also communicating the message well with our rakyat. One statement in the past of mask wearing only during symptoms has seemed to be imprinted in the minds of Malaysians. It would be helpful if it can be made compulsory to wear masks in public.
