COVID-19 | The Health Ministry today reported 5,806 new Covid-19 cases today - the highest in a week.
New cases over the past 30 days have stood at a similar range.
However, hospital admission of Covid-19 patients have been trending down over the past week. Utilisation of hospital beds reserved for Covid-19 patients is 36.8 percent.
According to the Health Ministry's CovidNow website, there are no states over the past week facing a drastic increase in admissions of Covid-19 patients.
The states of Malacca and Terengganu currently have a bed utilisation rate of above 80 percent. However, bed utilisation is a dynamic number as hospitals can repurpose other parts of their facility to cater for a surge in admissions.
The R-naught for the country has been below 1.00 since Nov 24. The only regions where the R-naught is above 1.00 are Perlis, Penang and Labuan.
The breakdown of new cases by states for today will only be reported by the Health Ministry after midnight. Below are the figures for yesterday:
