KUALA LUMPUR (Jan 9): A return of “tighter” inter-state and inter-district travel could be on the cards in an effort to combat the spiking cases of Covid-19 in the country, The Star reported Health Minister Datuk Seri Dr Adham Baba (pictured) saying today.
Dr Adham added that his ministry also advised the National Security Council to carry out more stringent enforcement of Covid-19 SOPs.
“Sporadic cases, which is infection within the community and positive cases among foreign workers contribute greatly to the spike.
“Sporadic cases occur from inter-state travel or attending a gathering or social event,” he said after witnessing an event at the Sultanah Aminah Hospital in Johor Bahru today.
Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin will make an announcement on Monday (Jan 11) about measures to tackle the high number of Covid-19 cases in some states, which include tighter SOPs.
