: The Dewan Rakyat today passed the Prevention and Control of Infectious Diseases Bill 2024 by a majority voice vote after being debated by 23 Members of Parliament.
“It not only ensures more efficient and effective prevention and control, but also provides a solid enforcement foundation to face any future outbreaks or pandemics, as well as new infectious disease threats,“ he said when winding up the debate on the bill. “Imagine if the public does not take seriously the laws related to the control of infectious diseases, this will result in continued transmission of infections, leading to outbreaks or pandemics, high hospitalisation rates and Intensive Care Unit admissions, as well as an increase in the death toll.
Lukanisman said the RM5,000 amount set is the maximum limit, and the actual compound imposed will take into account the severity of the offence to ensure it is balanced and fair.
