PETALING JAYA: Covid-19 variants and sub-variants found in China have been detected in Malaysia, says Health Minister Dr Zaliha Mustafa.

This is based on information from the World Health Organisation , she said, while urging the public to get a vaccine booster shot as soon as possible.“Based on reports, the WHO had a meeting with China on sharing the latest data and will continue to obtain detailed information, on the situation and Covid-19 management in the country.“Based on the report by China to WHO, the variants and sub-variants found in China have also been detected in Malaysia.

Dr Zaliha urged those who have exceeded a six-month period since their first booster shot to get a second dose without waiting for the bivalent vaccine to be available. The conditional approval for the bivalent vaccine was given on Dec 14, and the supplies are expected to arrive early this year. She also advised the public to observe precautionary measures and standard operating procedures as well as to practice TRIIS .

The extension of the local infection area declaration to June this year also allowed the ministry the space to take immediate action when needed, she said.

Psdan muka KKM..

DGHisham For border case mcmni, dont rely on rtk test. Buat pcr. Quarantine kan mereka for few days. If betul2 selamat baru bagi masuk. Ini all over again balik aduhhh semak betul rasa

Nak suruh block dr china, rasenya kena pk yg masuk dr singapore. Singapore still have no plan nak ketatkan rules untuk pelancong china. Berapa ramai yg keluar masuk setiap hari. Takut pembawa nanti bukan dr china tp dr singapore.

Up sikit gambar mr X badan superman..

tutup la border..sekat la orang china dari masuk Malaysia..takkan tu nak ajar

Ingat adham baba paling slow. Rupanya ada lagi slow. Eh sial la.

Close china Malaysia border immediately, block all incoming flights and outgoing flights to china

Harap Kerajaan SEKAT pelancong dari negara China, rakyat tempatan yg mahu melancong ke negara China, dan rakyat tempatan yg ada sejarah perjalanan dari negara China utk sementara waktu sehingga keadaan terkawal. PM anwaribrahim, Menteri Zaliha_DrZ, & Menteri anthonyloke

Lembap ✅

And what reasonable actions have we seen?

KKMPutrajaya Cuba kuarantin 14 hari pelancong dr China.Kos? Diorg tanggung sendiri.Nak sangat datang kan? Kami dah malas nk PKP.Mohon menteri pikir jauh sikit.Sibuk nak jaga ekonomi sangat,nanti dah merebak,semua tutup,ekonomi lingkup. Menteri gaji besar mgkin selesa.Kami ni yg nak mati.

Enough with all the variants bullshit. Move covid from public alarm into medical space alert. Afterall there is nothing the public can do about it. Declassify covid and set the world free

goe on openned yr doors juz liat our pap garhman..yr peasants/we r xpendable bcoz we r nobodee$

I say we riot. WE HAD ENOUGH

New year same fears

1. WHO said CHN variant detected in Msia. 2. Minister said, Msian go take jab again, prctice triiss. 3. Testing tourists? No. 4. Limit tourists? No. 5. Anything else? No. RakyatJagaRakyat again. SendiriJagaSendiri again. AnotherRina

Tutup je lah border buat sementara. Tak belajar dari kesilapan dulu ke ?

Have taken 4th jabbed, it should be gud enough right?

Pastu

MOH has announced control measures for travellers from China? When? What?

tolong tutup border & ban kemasukan pendatang dr china

KKMPutrajaya Wfh coming!

Jgn kena game lagi dgn kkm

Minister ni akan jadi sbb PH jatuh dan abahcow kembali sbb kes akan bertambah dan rakyat fed up...i blame u lot if that happens!

Tak boleh ka bersabar bagi sebulan dua..tengok dan lihat negara jiran yg benarkan puak puak ni masuk.

Money come 1st

Please tutup the border. Nak convo bulan tiga ni dengan aman

lebih berhati-hati semua

Silap lah undi mereka ini. Semua cakap saja. No action. Lembih macam taufu. Brainless. Oii menteri.. We are frontlines. Other countries tourist ariival will be affected. Bodo.

Stop dulu buat sementara..belajar lah kesilapan yang lalu

DGHisham So? Bukak la border tu luas luas.

DGHisham Jangan laa ulang lagi perbuatan yang sama. Tak payah bagi masuk pun tak pa. Fokus ja laa ekonomi kat dalam Malaysia ni.

Although COVID-19 has been endemic in Malaysia, it still requires constant alertness and vigilance at all times.

Data only not enough. Data can be manipulated to satisfy certain parties esp the big pharma who can gain big profits from all this wayang. Do research. Do not victimise the rakyat who have already suffered enough during the previous mcos.

mantap.

suka pada data..

Pls im tired of face masks

Kalau personality baik saja xguna jgk.. kalau slowwwww bertindak 🤬

Very slow this government

Please perketatkan Rules kemasukan pelancong drp China. Takkan tak belajar drp pengalaman lepas?

Pastu ko x plan nk tutup ke border utk China? Slowwww betul lahh hshhshsg

PAS urges govt to temporarily bar China arrivals amid Covid-19 surgeParty info chief says govt should monitor the situation first. Government knows what to do!! The problem with this (actually no problem for those who 'collect' from the government sitting at home) the problem for others is putting food on the table for their children..taking care of the elderly...etc etc. and it is not just Chinese Nationals affected by the restrictions This makes sense..more so than temperature tests for other tourists coming from countries where covid is under control (NOT LIKE CHINA). Temperature tests are perceived as a quick $$$ for quarantine hotels. Western (vaccinated tourists) will go elsewhere to spend $ we need here.
