M'sian's must learn to live with the virus until an effective vaccine is developed.
| Today marks the end of the four-week-old movement control order and the beginning of the second extension of the MCO until April 28.
We should have been spared the second wave of the Covid-19 outbreak as the first wave of the outbreak only registered single-digit daily increases and reached a total of 22 cases from Jan 24 to Feb 16.We must learn the expensive lesson of our inattention and negligence which allowed the second wave of the Covid-19 outbreak to take place and caused the imposition of the MCO on March 18.
Since then, the curve has plateaued with daily increases ranging from 109 to 184 cases – and in the two weeks to April 28, we hope to see the daily increases to further reduce to two-digit and even single-digit figures. But we must also be prepared for new waves of Covid-19 outbreak until an effective vaccine is developed in 12 – 18 months or more.
However, it is bleak times for the UK as the total Covid-19 death toll rose above 10,000 on Easter Sunday and chalked up another 717 deaths in the past 24 hours to make the UK one of the big five countries with total death toll exceeding 10,000 deaths.
