Although the exponential increase of Covid-19 cases and deaths in Malaysia have been halted, will Covid-19 pandemic statistics on Ismail Sabri’s First 100 days as ninth Prime Minister of Malaysia on Nov. 28 see cumulative totals of 2.6 million Covid-19 cases and 30,000 Covid-19 deaths?


(Versi BM)

We have stopped the exponential increase of Covid-19 cases and deaths in Malaysia, although 4,543 Covid-19 cases and 58 Covid-19 deaths recorded yesterday highlights the agonisingly slow rate of such reduction in Malaysia.

We are not only unable to end the longest Covid-19 wave in the world – the third Covid-19 wave continuing for 14 months since the Sabah state general election last year – but we are performing worse than Indonesia and even India in reduction of daily Covid-19 cases and Covid-19 deaths.

Yesterday was not only Indonesia’s 25th consecutive day of daily new Covid-19 cases in triple-digit numbers, but the 39th consecutive day of daily Covid-19 deaths in double digit numbers – 244 daily new Covid-19 cases and 12 daily Covid-19 deaths (as compared to Malaysia’s 4,542 new cases and 58 Covid-19 deaths yesterday).

We are losing not only to Indonesia, but to India.

India has over 43 times the population of Malaysia, but India recorded 7,841 daily new Covid-19 cases and 304 daily Covid-19 deaths yesterday as compared to Malaysia’s 4,543 daily new Covid-19 cases and 58 Covid-19 deaths.

I believe that the Pakatan Harapan Government, if it had not been toppled by the Sheraton Move conspiracy in February 2020, would have kept the Covid-19 cases and deaths very low, like South Korea, which today ranks No. 73 among nations with the most cumulative total of Covid-19 cases. South Korea’s cumulative totals yesterday were 381,694 Covid-19 cases and 2,980 Covid-19 deaths.

In contrast, although the exponential increase of Covid-19 cases and deaths in Malaysia have been halted, Covid-19 pandemic statistics on Ismail Sabri’s First 100 days as ninth Prime Minister of Malaysia on Nov. 28 may see cumulative totals of 2.6 million Covid-19 cases and 30,000 Covid-19 deaths in Malaysia?

And are we to maintain our rank as the No. 20th nation in the world with the most cumulative total of Covid-19 cases?

This is the price of the Sheraton Move conspiracy – instead of less than half a million Covid-19 cases and less than 3,000 Covid-19 deaths, we are heading towards Ismail Sabri’s First 100 Days as Ninth Prime Minister of Malaysia with 2.6 million Covid-19 cases and 30,000 Covid-19 deaths!

This is the overwhelming reason why Pakatan Harapan signed the confidence-supply-reform (CSR) Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Ismail Sabri on Sept. 13, 2021 – to save Malaysian lives and livelihoods as we must stop the exponential increase of Covid-19 cases and deaths to reach four or five million Covid-19 cases and over 100,000 Covid-19 deaths in Malaysia.

What will be the Covid-19 pandemic statistics on Khairy Jamaluddin’s first 100 days as the new Health Minister on Dec. 7, 2021?

This is why I suggested that Khairy should convene an urgent meeting of public and private health experts to find out how Malaysia can get better and faster results in ending Malaysia’s long third wave since September last year .

Meskipun peningkatan mendadak kes jangkitan dan korban Covid-19 di Malaysia sudah terhenti, adakah kita akan menyaksikan negara ini merekodkan 2.6 juta kes terkumpul jangkitan Covid-19 dengan jumlah keseluruhan 30,000 korban pada 100 hari pertama Ismail Sabri menjadi perdana menteri pada 28 November ini?

Peningkatan mendadak kes jangkitan dan korban akibat Covid-19 telah terhenti, meskipun negara ini merekodkan 4,543 jangkitan dengan 58 korban Covid-19 semalam — kadar penurunan yang dilihat begitu perlahan.

Kita bukan sahaja tidak mampu untuk menamatkan gelombang penularan Covid-19 terpanjang di dunia — gelombang ketiga berlanjutan selama 14 bulan sejak pilihan raya negeri Sabah berlangsung pada tahun lalu — kita juga menunjukkan prestasi yang lebih buruk berbanding Indonesia, malah India dalam kadar penurunan kes jangkitan dan korban Covid-19.

Semalam, Indonesia bukan sahaja mencatatkan jumlah kes baharu Covid-19 dalam lingkungan julat tiga angka untuk tempoh 25 hari berturut-turut, malah berjaya mengekalkan kadar korban Covid-19 dalam lingkungan julat dua angka untuk tempoh 39 hari berturut-turut — 244 kes jangkitan dengan 12 korban (berbanding Malaysia yang merekodkan 4,542 jangkitan dan 58 korban Covid-19 semalam).

Kita bukan sahaja tewas kepada Indonesia, malah turut tewas kepada India.

India mempunyai jumlah penduduk 43 kali ganda lebih ramai berbanding Malaysia, tetapi India merekodkan 7,841 kes jangkitan dengan 304 korban semalam berbanding Malaysia yang merekodkan 4,542 jangkitan dengan 58 korban.

Saya yakin sekiranya kerajaan Pakatan Harapan tidak digulingkan oleh konspirasi Langkah Sheraton pada Februari 2020, kita mampu untuk mengekalkan kadar jangkitan dan korban Covid-19 pada tahap yang terendah, seperti Korea Selatan, yang kini berada di kedudukan ke-73 di dunia dengan jumlah kes keseluruhan Covid-19 tertinggi. Korea Selatan mencatatkan 381,694 kes terkumpul Covid-19 dengan 2,980 korban keseluruhan setakat semalam.

Sebaliknya di Malaysia, meskipun kadar peningkatan mendadak kes jangkitan dan korban Covid-19 telah terhenti, adakah kita akan menyaksikan negara ini merekodkan 2.6 juta kes terkumpul jangkitan Covid-19 dengan jumlah keseluruhan 30,000 korban pada 100 hari pertama Ismail Sabri menjadi perdana menteri pada 28 November ini?

Dan adakah kita akan kekal di kedudukan ke-20 dengan jumlah kes keseluruhan Covid-19 tertinggi di dunia?

Inilah kesan dan akibat daripada konspirasi Langkah Sheraton — daripada kurang setengah juta jangkitan Covid-19 dan kurang 3,000 korban akibat wabak itu, kita sedang menuju angka 2.6 juta untuk jumlah keseluruhan jangkitan Covid-19 dan 30,000 korban keseluruhan akibat wabak itu menjelang 100 hari pertama Ismail Sabri sebagai perdana menteri!

Ini antara sebab mengapa Pakatan Harapan menandatangani Memorandum Persefahaman (MOU) kepercayaan-perbekalan-reformasi (CSR) dengan Ismail Sabri pada 13 September 2021 — untuk menyelamatkan kehidupan dan mata pencarian rakyat Malaysia kerana kita harus menghentikan peningkatan mendadak kes jangkitan dan korban Covid-19 yang berisiko meningkat kepada lima juta kes jangkitan dengan 100,000 korban Covid-19.

Berapa banyak pula kes jangkitan dan korban terkumpul yang akan dicatatkan pada 100 hari pertama Khairy Jamaluddin menjadi Menteri Kesihatan pada 7 Disember 2021?

Ini sebabnya mengapa saya mencadangkan Khairy supaya segera mengadakan mesyuarat dengan pakar kesihatan awam dan swasta bagi mencari cara untuk segera mengakhiri gelombang ketiga Covid-19 di Malaysia yang telah berlanjutan sejak September tahun lalu.
