Challenging to balance health, economy in the fight against Covid-19, says Health DG

PETALING JAYA: Malaysians should learn from the Sabah state election in our fight against the third wave of the Covid-19 pandemic, says Tan Sri Dr Noor Hisham Abdullah .

“It is a challenge to safeguard and strike a balance between health and economy in our ongoing war against Covid-19. Dr Noor Hisham’s call came amid a large number of positive cases recorded daily following the Sabah state election and the possible announcement of an Emergency by Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin on Saturday.

The obvious answer is good governance by government of today but that’s the biggest challenge. Is that answering your question, Mr.DG.

So it’s “Challenging” to gamble with people health and well-being

Slowly but surely the respect for this guy is going down the drain.

You DGHisham just need to focus on Health issues, recommendation and formulation of SOPs. The rest of the Menteri are supposed to coordinate with you on issues related with their portfolio. Crisis Management also need you to work with State Government. Together all will workout.

Best of the dg to just stick to health perspective at this moment ... pls don’t undo all the good things done so far

We must be able to balance between economic & covid for people wellbeings 😀😂🤑🤑 MKNJPM KKMPutrajaya MOFmalaysia EPUMalaysia

Being used and played like a musical instrument by politicians .... must be 'challenging' too

I am reconciling too. Cases c25k, 0.1% pop. Recovered c16k. Death c200. GDP c$360B. Contraction est 2%, c$7B. Opportunity costs? In contrast, eg. road accidents c500k, death c6k.

Whatever Tan Sri. I always felt that you were lionised for the wrong reasons. Your people at KMM made you look good through the pandemic.

We strongly urge the DG to stay away from the realm of economics, be apolitical, and concentrate on nothing else but fighting Coronavirus!!!

🙏

Being used and played like a music instrument by politicians

Integrity down the pits.

I heard its challenging to be shoe polisher too
