PUTRAJAYA, July 29 — Health director-general Datuk Dr Noor Hisham Abdullah has declared school areas as safe and free from the Covid-19 pandemic.“The issue is outside of the school. The schools are a risk but manageable. “If we detect any cases, we will take action to close the school,” he said in an engagement session with media practitioners here, today.
He said the MOH was holding discussions with the Education Ministry to issue guidelines for the standard operating procedure to prevent congestion outside the schools especially after the end of learning session. “We are considering to release the students in stages, not at once. So, this can reduce congestion after school.Dr Noor Hisham added that the two ministries were also working together to include the public health aspect as an education syllabus.Meanwhile, asked on the Covid-19 vaccine, Dr Noor Hisham said it was still at the third phase of research and Malaysia was not selected to carry out the study.“So, we have to look at the research data before we can recommend the vaccine,” he said.
