‘Another wave not beyond realm of possibility’


PETALING JAYA: Another wave of Covid-19 infections cannot be ruled out following the lifting of interstate travel curbs, says Health Minister Khairy Jamaluddin (pic) as he urges Malaysians to be responsible and practise health measures in order to avoid a surge.

Drawing on the reality of other highly vaccinated countries which have inoculated over 80% of their population, but are now facing a surge in new Covid-19 infections although upwards of 90% are either mild or asymptomatic, Khairy said Malaysia cannot afford another wave.
