PETALING JAYA: The number of areas with zero active Covid-19 cases has more than doubled to 120 from 46 in the last 25 days, signalling steady progress in Malaysia’s efforts to stem the coronavirus pandemic so far.

An analysis of the Health Ministry's Covid-19 figures also shows a clear and consistent downward trend in the number of active cases since April 8, three weeks after the movement control order (MCO) was implemented on March 18.
