WHO regional representative Dr Jacqueline Lo says ongoing vigilance and prevention are the only ways to stop virus transmission until a safe and effective vaccine is available.
In a commentary section in WHO’s website, entitled “A country united in the face of the pandemic”, she said in the years prior to the pandemic, the government and health authorities had taken great steps to bolster Malaysia’s health security and multi-sectoral response capacity for health emergencies and disaster preparedness.
Health services were swiftly enhanced to meet both anticipated and emerging demands as the government mobilised recruitment and redistribution of healthcare personnel, according to high workload areas. “It also took stringent measures regarding quarantine and isolation of confirmed and suspected cases,” she said.
