On Day 1 of Malaysia’s MCO 3.0, Health D-G says Covid-19 average infection rate at 1.12 nationally; highest Rt in Kedah, Terengganu, Pahang, PerakHealth D-G Tan Sri Dr Noor Hisham Abdullah says the Rt value, or the average number of persons who would be infected by a Covid-19 positive person in Malaysia over a seven-day moving window, is 1.12 as of May 11.

In his daily updates on Facebook on the Covid-19 Rt figures for Malaysia and its individual states, Dr Noor Hisham said the Covid-19 infectious rate or R0/Rt figure based on estimates using daily cases on May 11 for the entire Malaysia is 1.12.For Rt or the effective reproduction number, a figure higher than 1.0 would mean the Covid-19 virus is spreading fast.

With the number of new Covid-19 cases breaching the 2,000 mark every day on April 15 until April 27, and breaching the 3,000 mark almost every day from April 28 to May 11 , the Rt value for Malaysia has largely hovered above 1.10 during this period.
