KUALA LUMPUR, Feb 5 – Malaysia continues to see soaring Covid-19 infection numbers with 9,117 new cases recorded today, a steep hike from yesterday’s 7,324 cases.
The last time new cases breached the 9,000-case mark was in October 8, 2021 with 9,751 cases.
This brings the cumulative infection cases to 2,904,131 cases, Health director-general Tan Sri Dr Noor Hisham Abdullah announced.
Two days ago, the Health Ministry said that the severity of Covid-19 cases in Malaysia is currently its prime concern following the emergence of the Omicron variant rather than the number of daily infections.
