Dr Noor Hisham: MCO to flatten Covid-19 growth, not eradicate it
BY RADZI RAZAK
KUALA LUMPUR, May 2 — The movement control order was meant to limit the spread of Covid-19 and prevent it from overwhelming the country’s health system, Datuk Dr Noor Hisham Abdullah said in explaining the decision to reopen the economy on May 4. He added that policies on Covid-19 needed to balance both the disease’s threat to lives as well as livelihoods, and said that authorities have provided guidelines to businesses and the public on how to minimise their risk of the disease.
The announcement was met with mixed responses as some countries that ended their lockdowns after believing they had contained Covid-19 were forced to reimpose controls when new cases spiked.
