PETALING JAYA: The total lockdown must be accompanied by aid for the people, including financial assistance and mental health support, says the Malaysian Health Coalition.

The coalition, made up of various Malaysian health professional societies, said it supported the need for the two-week lockdown to begin on June 1.“We call for generous economic support for the rakyat, strict and fair enforcement of all rules, and a clear post-lockdown strategy, ” it said in a statement on Saturday .

“Federal-state and public-private coordination must be strengthened to mobilise and utilise every available resource. “For example, the Pfizer vaccine can be taken six weeks apart as recommended by the World Health Organization, but with increased genomic surveillance in partnership with universities to ensure vaccine effectiveness against new variants, ” it added.

“This is important for rapid and accurate identification of active infections who are asymptomatic or pre-symptomatic, ” it said.
