Be cautious of other Covid-19 symptoms!

Health director-general Datuk Dr Noor Hisham Abdullah reminded that lethargy and a loss of sense of smell and taste are also some of the symptoms, other than a high temperature.

He also advised those with a mild fever to stay at home and not go to work until they feel better.

Datuk Dr Noor Hisham adds that action can be taken against patients, who violate self-quarantine orders by appearing in public.

You should do your part to help mitigate the spread of Covid-19 in the country!

Health director-general Datuk Dr Noor Hisham says everyone should strictly adhere to SOPs set by the government, to keep the number of cases down.

For the first time, Malaysia recorded a single digit in the number of local transmission cases yesterday.

Of the 15 new cases reported, 6 were imported ones.

This brings the country’s total number of infections to 7,619 with 1,400 or so as active cases.
