GEORGE TOWN, Sept 3 ― The Batu Lanchang Market here which resumed business just two weeks ago has been ordered to temporarily close again today, after four new Covid-19 cases were detected.
“A lot of other public markets in Penang have been ordered to close every other day, yesterday, Rifle Range and Bukit Gedung markets were also ordered to close,” he told reporters at Batu Lanchang Market this morning. Jagdeep said this does not only affect public markets in the state but also other private premises such as restaurants and shops which were ordered to close by the state health department once cases were detected.
He said the screening should be conducted every two weeks for better preventive measures so there is a need for the price of Covid-19 rapid antigen self-test kits to be lower than the announced ceiling retail price of RM19.90. Jagdeep said the state's free Covid-19 mass screening programme which targeted 40,000 people was highly successful in which 46,875 people registered for it.
However, only 11,000 doses of vaccines were prepared by the state government in collaboration with the local government and housing ministry for the programme.
