KUALA LUMPUR, July 3 — The government’s decision to allow five states to transit into a slightly more relaxed phase of the Covid-19 lockdown was based on their improved individual performance, Datuk Seri Tengku Zafrul Abdul Aziz said today.
To calculate the daily case average needed for each state to exit NRP phase, a formula of ) is applied, with N representing the national case average required to exit each NRP phase, Y the respective state’s population, and Z the population of Malaysia. “According to current statistics, 10 states actually have recorded statewide daily case averages that allow them to transition into Phase 2, but this is before other thresholds have been taken into account,” Tengku Zafrul said.
Selangor showed a seven-day case average of 2,462 cases and 37.7 cases per 100,000 people, while Kuala Lumpur had an average of 762 daily cases and 43 cases per 100,000 and Negri Sembilan with and average of 645 cases and 57.1 per 100,000. Currently all states except the five allowed to transition into Phase 2 have reported limited space in their respective ICU. Perak, Perlis and Terengganu report an “adequate” load on their units, while ICUs in Kelantan, Pahang and Sabah are currently at a “moderate” load.
