The state has recorded 2,623 cases in the preceding two weeks.

The Conditional Movement Control Order in Sarawak, scheduled to end on March 1, will be extended for another two weeks, said Senior Minister Ismail Sabri Yaakob.

"After conducting a risk assessment with various agencies in the MCO technical committee, the government has agreed to extend the CMCO throughout Sarawak from March 2 to March 15," he said in a statement on the development of the MCO today. He said the EMCO would also be enforced in Kampung Sinsingon and Kampung Lotong in Nabawan, Sabah from Feb 27 to March 12 due to the increase in the number of cases of Covid-19 in the areas, noting that a total of 42 positive Covid-19 cases have been recorded in these two localities.

“So far, a total of 59 cases have been recorded involving this locality and the Ministry of Health has confirmed a sharp increase in cases with high infectivity,” he said adding that the EMCO would allow MOH to conduct screenings on the nearly 2,500 residents to curb the spread of COVID-19 infection in the community.
