KUALA LUMPUR (July 13): Malaysia reported 11,079 new Covid-19 infections on Tuesday — up 29.2% from 8,574 on Monday and a new record high daily figure for the country.
The jump in new cases came as the Health Ministry ramped up health screening and close contact tracing in areas under the Enhanced Movement Control Order (EMCO).
Selangor, the most populous state, recorded its highest daily figure today at 5,263, making up 47.5% of the latest nationwide infections, after reporting over 4,000 cases for five straight days.
After Selangor, Kuala Lumpur has the second highest number of infections at 1,521, followed by Negeri Sembilan (1,033), Kedah (497) and Sarawak (472), according to a Twitter post by Health Director-General Tan Sri Dr Noor Hisham Abdullah.
Malaysia has detected 855,949 Covid-19 infections since the country reported its first case in January last year.
