Everyone, this is serious. I think every media outlet must do their part to alert everyone about this and not to take it lightly. Please refer to the official news from the Health Minister himself here. He announced that Malaysia has confirmed three cases of the Wuhan coronavirus in Malaysia. All the three are China nationals from Wuhan and are the family members of the 66-year old Chinese patient detected in Singapore recently. He said, “While they did not show symptoms, lab tests confirmed that they have the virus. We have placed them under observation and isolation at the Sungai Buloh hospital and all three patients are in stable condition.” Full article here.
