We need to identify all infected persons by testing them widely and place suspected cases under quarantine to contain the outbreak. FMTNews Covid19
The Covid-19 outbreak has affected every single Malaysian in an enormous way. It has torn the fabric of our society and changed the way we live. We want this to end. We wish we could reset this year and start again.
Jacinda Ardern, prime minister of New Zealand, in declaring a four-week lockdown at a very early stage of their epidemic, said: “Everything you will all give up for the next few weeks, all of the lost contacts with others, all of the isolation, and difficult time entertaining children – it will literally save lives. Thousands of lives.”
There are three things that we need to emphasise that would enable us to move forward. Three corners or points of a triangle that are critical for us to endure this period and deal with this epidemic . If even one is broken, we will not be able to halt the epidemic. This sort of widespread infection can happen in many other situations without the MCO. It can happen in a conference, a wedding, a funeral, a large religious meeting, a mass celebration or eating together in a community.
I am indebted to two Malaysians I have met online during this epidemic for thinking through this data with me and offering valuable insights . I want to remind us constantly that there is increasing data that we could be spreading the coronavirus without realising we are infected. One study to support this suggested that 86% of all infections were undocumented and were the infection source for the majority of cases identified. Another study suggests that many countries in the world are only picking up 10-30% of cases currently.
