KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 10 — Malaysia recorded 7,373 new Covid-19 cases today, just hours before a scheduled special announcement by the prime minister, possibly on the lifting of interstate travel restrictions.
Today’s cases represent a drop of over 1,300 cases from yesterday’s figure of 8,743.
It also means that new cases in Malaysia have remained below 10,000 for a consecutive eight days.
In a Twitter post, Health director-general Tan Sri Dr Noor Hisham Abdullah said the total number of infections nationally now stands at 2,339,594 since the pandemic began.
