Expert: Stay where you are, don’t ‘balik kampung’

Going back to your hometown or on a local holiday in the next two weeks will defeat the purpose of the movement control order, which is meant to limit the spread of Covid-19, experts said.

Infectious diseases expert Dr Adeeba Kamarulzaman said the people should stay where they are.

"No, the answer is no. Stay put wherever you are. The whole idea of this restricted movement order is to restrict movement, to minimise human contact that can spread the virus," she tweeted last night.
