MANCHESTER, March 12 — As Italy scrambles to contain the spread of Covid-19, the Malaysian Embassy in Rome is on high alert to help Malaysians in the locked-down cities and, in fact, has gone beyond its call of duty to send out care packages to citizens in affected areas. When contacted, its First Secretary Zebine Nissa Sarfraz confirmed to Bernama on the care packages and said that it was in constant contact with Malaysians there.
Asked if there would be any briefing for Malaysians in Italy on the situation, she said the embassy is likely to avoid any gatherings for now.
