Express and stage bus services in Sarawak will be allowed to operate at full passenger-seat capacity from tomorrow.
The State Disaster Management Committee (SDMC) in a statement today said this decision was based on the suggestion by the Sarawak Ministry of Transport after considering the high Covid-19 vaccination rate in the state.
“The express and stage bus service operators, as well as their passengers, are required to adhere to the standard operating procedure (SOP) set by the Ministry of Health, National Security Council, and SDMC Sarawak such as using a face mask, body temperature scanning, and using MySejahtera,” it said.
The SDMC also said only 11 of the 527 new Covid-19 cases reported in Sarawak today had lung infections and required respiratory support.
“The other 516 cases have mild or no symptoms. The additional cases today have brought the cumulative number in Sarawak to 243,119.
“Nineteen deaths from Covid-19 were recorded in the state between Oct 6 and Nov 2 while there are still 27 active clusters,” it added.
