The Health director-general said that while they might be doing well in terms of the number of new cases, there should be no complacency in the fight against the spread of Covid-19."That means we have to comply with certain health regulations and precautions so we can reduce the risk of infection," he said during his daily press conference on the Covid-19 situation on Saturday .
For the third time this week, the country recorded double-digit increases in new cases over a 24-hour span, instead of above 100 cases before. When asked if certain sectors of the economy could be reopened, Dr Noor Hisham said that they were looking at how this could be done in stages.'We need to look at priority areas we should allow and screen first. The Ministry will work together with other agencies and ministries to make sure the sector can comply with the regulations," he said."The war is still on, life goes on, but we have to manage our environment as well as our situation," he said.
Dr Noor Hisham also said that they would be embarking on large-scale screening on foreign workers as part of their focused screening of the disease. Malaysia recorded 54 new Covid-19 cases on Saturday , taking the total number of confirmed infections in the country to 5,305.
