Malaysia are doing well because we didn't follow them. We use the cheap malaria drugs that they don't like because it is to cheap. It works 90% cure rate
please check ur facts. The most recent comment made by Dato DG KKM has said that Malaysia has dropped the use of antimalarial drug hydroxychloroquine due to effectiveness issue.
In another press statement, he was telling that if take the medicine early, it will stop at stage 1 or stage 2, won't go further, thats why Malaysia death rate is low. The only problem with this drug is, it is 80 years in the market, and very cheap. I got the YouTube video press conference
Face masks to be compulsory in shops in England; UK death toll rises by 138 – as it happened
Evening summary Face coverings are to be mandatory in shops and supermarkets in England from 24 July, Matt Hancock confirmed. The health and social care secretary said a store can refuse someone entry if they aren’t wearing one and call the police if there’s a problem. People who don’t wear one will face fines of up to £100. Children under 11 and those with disabilities will be exempt from the new rule. The government will reach a decision about the future of Leicester’s local lockdown this week. The latest coronavirus data from the 14 days since lockdown was reimposed will be examined to determine whether restrictions can be eased. Data released on Monday suggested the rate of new cases of Covid-19 per 100,000 population in Leicester had fallen slightly. Blackburn with Darwen has introduced stricter measures to try to avoid a local lockdown after a rise in coronavirus cases. Wearing face coverings in all enclosed spaces, including workplaces and beauty salons, bumping elbows and limits on the number of people who can visit a household are among the measures, after 70 cases were recorded in the week to 11 July. The UK’s death toll rose by 138 to 44,968.
Coronavirus outbreaks are up to 20 times more likely in large care homes, according to a major study seen by the Guardian, prompting calls to divide them into “bubbles” before any second wave hits.
My colleague Rob Booth reports that in research that will increase scrutiny of private care chains, which often operate the largest facilities, NHS Lothian and Edinburgh University found the likelihood of infection getting into a home tripled with every additional 20 beds.
It comes amid pressure on ministers to draw up stricter guidelines to prevent further outbreaks in care homes. Of more than 55,500 people to have died with Covid-19 in the UK according to their death certificates, nearly 40% (21,600) were care home residents, despite ministers’ claims to have “thrown a protective ring” around them.
Extra measures introduced to try to avoid local lockdown in Blackburn with Darwen after rise in Covid-19 cases Extra measures including a limit on the number of people allowed to visit a household have been announced in Blackburn with Darwen after a rise in coronavirus cases.
On Tuesday, the Lancashire authority’s director of public health Dominic Harrison announced the new measures to be followed for the next month with the aim of avoiding a local lockdown.
The restrictions include a limit of two people from the same household allowed to visit another home.
Figures published today showed Blackburn had 47 cases per 100,000 people in the seven days to 11 July, up from 31.6 cases per 100,000 in the seven days to 4 July.
The authority is third on the list of highest weekly rates, behind Leicester, which has a rate of 118.2 cases per 100,000 and is subject to a local lockdown, and nearby Pendle, with a rate of 76.6.
Harrison said, if rates were continuing to rise in a few weeks, the council would consider reimposing some lockdown restrictions.
Residents are being told to wear face coverings in all enclosed public spaces, including workplaces, libraries, museums, health centres and hair and beauty salons.
Harrison also called for people only to bump elbows with anyone outside of their immediate family, instead of shaking hands or hugging, and said public protection advice for small shops was being stepped up to ensure measures including social distancing and increased ventilation were being followed.
Targeted testing is taking place in the borough, with a mobile testing unit at Witton Park Academy as well as a facility at Royal Blackburn Hospital, and residents have been told they do not need to have symptoms to be tested.
Another 138 deaths recorded across UK, bringing toll to 44,968 The Department of Health and Social Care said 44,968 people had died in hospitals, care homes and the wider community after testing positive for coronavirus in the UK as of 5pm on Sunday - up by 138 from 44,830 the previous day.
The figures do not include all deaths involving Covid-19 across the UK, which are thought to have passed 55,500.
The DHSC also said that in the 24-hour period up to 9am on Tuesday, there had been a further 398 lab-confirmed UK cases. Overall, a total of 291,373 cases have been confirmed.
The street artist uploaded a 59-second video captioned “If you don’t mask - you don’t get” to his Instagram and YouTube pages this afternoon.
It begins with a laptop playing PA Video footage showing the London Underground being deep cleaned in May. Banksy, wearing a white boiler suit, mask, goggles, blue gloves and an orange hi-viz jacket with the message “stay safe” printed on it, is then seen posing as a Transport for London worker.
He makes his way to a Circle Line train, carrying a yellow pump action spray bottle and stencils in cardboard on board. As an announcement states that “the next station is Baker Street”, the artist sprays blue droplets from the face of one of his famous rats, which has been stencilled on the carriage.
Banksy indicates for another masked passenger to move back, before stencilling a rat using a blue face mask as a parachute. Another rat has a blue mask over its face, while one holds a bottle of hand sanitiser.
The video finishes with a message sprayed on the wall of a tube station reading: “I get lockdown” with the doors of the tube carriage closing to reveal the message “But I get up again”. Chumbawamba’s song Tubthumping – also known as I Get Knocked Down – plays as the doors touch together.
Government to reach decision on Leicester lockdown later this week The government will decide later this week whether to make changes to Leicester’s local lockdown after examining the latest coronavirus data, the health and social care secretary has said.
Matt Hancock said information covering the 14 days since the local measures were introduced will be looked at on Thursday followed by a public announcement “as soon as is reasonably possible”.
Leicester became the first place in the country to have tight restrictions reimposed on 30 June following a rise in coronavirus infections.
Speaking in the Commons earlier, Hancock said:
We will look at 14 days of data, it is today 14 days since the measures were introduced and we’ll look at that on Thursday of this week and make a public announcement as soon as is reasonably possible about whether and if any changes can be made to the situation in Leicester.
Thankfully the numbers have been coming down in Leicester and we’ve put in that extra testing, but the number of positive cases in Leicester is still well above the rest of the country and I won’t prejudge the decision that we’ll take on Thursday and we’ll take into account all of the data.
His comments follow claims from the Leicester mayor, Sir Peter Soulsby, that data being provided to local health officials is not detailed enough and up to two weeks out of date.
But one of the government’s deputy chief medical officers, Prof Jonathan Van-Tam, has said that “the local authority is getting absolutely granular postcode-level data”.
According to data released on Monday, the rate of new cases of Covid-19 per 100,000 population in Leicester had fallen slightly from 117.7 in the seven days to 3 July to 114.3 in the seven days to 10 July. It was 156.8 in the seven days to June 26.
Only two other local authorities had a rate of more than 40 new cases per 100,000 people in the seven days to July 10 - Pendle on 67.8 and Blackburn with Darwen on 41.0.
Facemasks will be compulsory in shops and supermarkets in England from next week, the government said on Tuesday, in a U-turn on previous policy.
The new legislation will come into force in England on July 24, after weeks of wrangling from ministers about their effectiveness.
“The Prime Minister has been clear that people should be wearing face coverings in shops and we will make this mandatory from July 24,” Boris Johnson’s office said.
“There is growing evidence that wearing a face covering in an enclosed space helps protect individuals and those around them from coronavirus,” it said in a statement.
People who fail to cover their face risk a fine of up to £100 with enforcement to be carried out by the police.
Johnson, who spent several days battling Covid-19 in intensive care, on Monday said the measure was “extra insurance” against the spread of the virus.
“I do think in shops it’s very important to wear a face covering if you’re going to be in a confined space to protect other people, and receive protection,” he said.
Johnson has been pictured recently wearing a blue facemask bought for £2 from a high-street bargain store.
But Johnson’s senior cabinet colleague, Michael Gove, on Sunday appeared to rule out the compulsory wearing of facemasks, saying ministers trusted people’s “good sense”.
Facemasks have been mandatory on public transport across the country since June 15, and Scotland has already made the coverings compulsory for shoppers.
UK Environment Secretary George Eustice said Tuesday the government was changing its advice in accordance with developments in scientific thinking.
“The evidence, the understanding, has been evolving,” he told Sky News television. “I don’t think it’s unreasonable to ask the public now to go to that next step.”
Health Secretary Matt Hancock will outline the new policy in parliament later on Tuesday.
But there are already concerns from the police who have called it “nigh on enforceable”.
“Shopkeepers need to step up to the plate and take some responsibility,” said Ken Marsh, of the Metropolitan Police Federation, which represents rank-and-file officers.
“They can quite easily put signs up on their doors ‘No mask on, no entry, this is private property’.”
Opposition parties have also accused the government of dithering and asked why the policy is being delayed until July 24.
Ben Bradshaw, from the Labour party, called the government’s approach “total shambles”.
Britain has been one of the countries worst hit by the virus, with nearly 45,000 deaths from positive coronavirus cases, according to an official government tally.
Broader statistics, taking into account suspected cases, put the death toll at more than 50,000.
The government was also warned on Tuesday that a second wave of infections could see 120,000 deaths in hospitals alone in a “reasonable worst-case scenario” if no action was taken now.
The Academy of Medical Sciences said the government needed to prepare immediately to prevent the state-run National Health Service (NHS) from being overwhelmed from September.
One thing for sure is Trump is Super Stupid in Science and risk management in handling Covid-19 pandemic. Don't hope that Trump followers are smart. Just be prepared for the worst situation if your countries leader are Trump followers, US running dogs.... Covid-19 showed the world that which leaders are capable and talent in leadership and care about their people. Trump is fail. Boris Johnson is fail too. Brazil is totally fail.

He should resign. He's a puppet to the CCP regime.
He is the one responsible in the death of millions of C-19 victim worldwide.
