The number of cases is still high while our system preparedness is still low.
The number of Covid-19 positive cases are still increasing beyond 100 cases daily. In fact, the average daily new cases in Phase Two of MCO is higher than Phase One. Perhaps this is due to the increase in Covid-19 tests done by the Health Ministry .
With the federal government’s latest announcement that several sectors will be reconsidered for permission to operate, the government must pay attention to two key criteria before even deciding to lift or even relax the MCO.Firstly, we need to look at the current Covid-19 stats.
The government must ensure that if new cases arise, we must have the ability to quickly track down the contacts, conduct testings and implement quarantine to immediately break the chain of infection. For example, up to last week, to my knowledge, other than Sarawak which utilised smartphone application to track self-quarantine, all other states were monitoring self-quarantine manually where patients had to dial-in to the hospital a specific number of times a day to report themselves.
