No tightening of Covid-19 SOPs just yet: Noor Hisham

No tightening of COVIDー19 SOPs just yet, says DGHisham

Health director-general Tan Sri Dr Noor Hisham Abdullah said the ministry will first monitor the situation in the country and further strengthen public health control before taking action. “We will first monitor not only hospital admissions but also many other indicators such as forecast cases, daily cases and so on.

He said if a new variant other than Omicron is detected, the MOH will monitor the extent of infectivity of the variant and the severity or hospitalisation. Another indicator is the increase in cases of influenza-like illness and severe acute respiratory infections in selected health facilities. If the records show a sudden increase in cases, the ministry will take more detailed measures to control them, he said.
