Not compulsory to wear masks in Malacca
THE Malacca government will not make it compulsory to wear masks indoors in most public places following the declining trend of Covid-19 cases in the state. – The Malaysian Insight file pic, January 16, 2023.
State Health and Anti-Drugs Committee Chairman Dr Muhamad Akmal Saleh said the decision was made after a two-week observation carried out by the relevant authorities showed that there was a high level of awareness among the people as they would take their own initiative to wear masks indoors or in crowded places to prevent the spread of the coronavirus.
“When the state government encouraged the wearing of face masks, the number of cases had declined further to only 180 cases in the following week,” he told reporters today.
