JOHOR BARU: The people are heeding the Health Ministry’s advice to impose a “self-lockdown” to reduce the number of Covid-19 cases. “I do not go anywhere as I am too afraid to leave my house because my elderly parents are living with me. Student management assistant Nurul Aisha Mohd Yusoff, 34, said she would only leave her house once a week for work. I think that practising self-lockdown for those who can is the only way to keep the infections at bay. The Health Ministry has been urging the public to enforce a “self-lockdown” to break the chain of Covid-19 infections, which have been averaging 6,000-plus cases daily as of late.
