New SOPs for COVID-19 close contacts will come into effect on March 1st. 

The Health Minister says close contacts aged 18 and above who are asymptomatic, and have received the booster shot will not need to undergo quarantine.

If they are positive, they must report it to MySejahtera and undergo isolation. 

However, those who are symptomatic must undergo self-isolation for five days.

On another note, Khairy says the the Health Ministry has extended the deadline for Sinovac primary recipients, and senior citizens to get their booster shots by March 31.
