Only Health Ministry issues press statements on influenza: Dr Dzulkefly thesundaily influenza flu DzulkeflyAhmad HealthMinistry Malaysia

: The Ministry of Health is the ministry responsible for coordinating the data and providing updates on the influenza outbreak in the country.

“We are the custodian of health. The ministry does not deny any quarters from collaborating with us to control the influenza outbreak, but to have statements issued at various levels can cause confusion and panic among the public,“ he told reporters after opening the Antibiotic Fun Run 2020 at the Malaysian Agro Exposition Serdang , near here today.

On the outbreak of influenza in schools, Dr Dzulkefly said teachers should promote good hygiene practices among their students. He said the ministry would issue a statement on precautions to be taken to prevent infections, especially for those travelling during the “balik kampung” exodus for the Chinese New Year celebration next week.
