Health Ministry expects 12 weeks of lockdown needed to flatten Covid-19 curve

KUALA LUMPUR— Twelve weeks of the movement control order (MCO) could allow health authorities to contain the runaway Covid-19 infection rate by May, Tan Sri Dr Noor Hisham Abdullah said on the first day of the renewed lockdown.

In a press briefing today, he said it was still too early to see the effects of the MCO but insisted that it was the right move to help Malaysia suppress the growth of Covid-19 infections.

“With these procedures, we hope we can reduce the curve — based on our projection — by 12 weeks but we will implement two weeks first and see what the developments are in these two weeks and whether there is a need (to extend the MCO) or otherwise, it will depend on the data.

“And our projection is that by May, we can flatten the curve of Covid-19 cases in our country,’’ he said.

On Monday, Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin announced that an MCO will be reintroduced in all Federal Territories, Penang, Johor, Melaka, Selangor and Sabah until January 26.
Pahang, Perak, Negri Sembilan, Kedah, Terengganu and Kelantan will remain under the conditional MCO while Perlis and Sarawak will return to recovery MCO measures.

In his special address on Monday, Muhyiddin stated the Covid-19 pandemic was starting to overwhelm the country’s major public hospitals, 15 of which he said was already nearing their maximum capacity.

Malaysia reported 2,985 new Covid-19 cases in the country today compared to yesterday’s record high of 3,309 infections.

Dr Noor Hisham also announced four more Covid-19 deaths today. -MALAY MAIL

Covid-19 herd immunity unlikely this year, says WHO
AFP - January 12, 2021 4:22 PM

GENEVA: Scientists at the World Health Organization warned that mass vaccinations would not bring about herd immunity to the coronavirus this year, even as one leading producer boosted its production forecast.

Infections numbers are surging around the world, especially in Europe where nations have been forced to ramp up virus restrictions even as vaccines are rolled out.

The WHO’s chief scientist Soumya Swaminathan warned Monday that it would take time to produce and give enough shots to halt the spread of the virus, which has infected more than 90 million people worldwide with deaths approaching two million.

“We are not going to achieve any levels of population immunity or herd immunity in 2021,” she said, stressing the need to maintain physical distancing, hand-washing and mask-wearing.

'12-week circuit breaker needed'
By Veena Babulal - January 10, 2021 @ 10:00am


"The country will then be forced to switch from containment to mitigation and we may need another MCO (Movement Control Order). This time, it needs to be a full-fledged MCO, not CMCO (Conditional Movement Control Order) and it needs to be long enough to drastically reduce the contact rate between people."

Dont worry you will be bless with convid-19 karma



DickyMe It is my opinion that deaths are piled under Covid-19 pandemic, a

I have no influence to spread my thinking.

Others have their own thinking capacity and don't underestimate them.

My condolence for your loss, however I still believe attributing Covid-19 virus for the numerous death is exaggerated.

W.H.O is a fear monger.

When medical science is still scratching their head to find the true cause of this pandemic, how did they arrive to a solution that staying home is a preventive measure? What is the proof? Just because China did it and found a fluke success? LOL

Now it is back with more vigour, what do they have to say?

Aiyoyo Singaporean no or 0 convid 19 transmission
So not necessary use glove lor or even vaccine too
Waste of $

nabehKYY said the medical staff would have to wear gloves when giving the vaccine. http://koonyewyin.com/2020/12/30/supermax-price-drop-is-so-illogical/
Apparently it was an overstatement.

Look at the Singapore PM on how he received the vaccination. I can't see a single glove!
