MCO extension: Health Ministry to provide data April 10

CORONAVIRUS | The Health Ministry will provide data on April 10, to help the government decide whether there is a need to extend the movement control order (MCO) period beyond April 15.

The decision will be made based on whether there is a drop or rise in the number of new Covid-19 cases registered per day, said health director-general Dr Noor Hisham Abdullah.

“The data will need to tell us whether we need to extend or not [...]

“The reality is that we have to base it on science and facts.

“We hope that by April 10, the data is available for us to make a decision on whether we need to extend it or not,” he said at the ministry’s daily press conference in Putrajaya this evening.
