KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysia's daily COVID-19 cases may hit the 13,000 mark by Jun 14 if COVID-19 measures are not followed, according to its health ministry's projections.
According to modelling data published on Monday (May 31), COVID-19 cases will increase sharply in June if people fail to comply with standard operating procedures.
The number of new cases in Malaysia has been on an upward trend since April this year, reaching a record 9,020 new cases on May 29, although the numbers have dipped since.
Health director-general Noor Hisham Abdullah on Monday evening said that Malaysia is “not out of the woods yet”.
“Please stay at home and embrace self-lockdown. If you need to attend to urgent matters please adhere to all SOPs. Pray that this lockdown will flatten the curve in time,” he said in a tweet.
