“Wear masks esp in crowded areas. #TRIIS. Get boosted. Support #PICKids,” he tweeted.
Earlier, Khairy said the Omicron wave has begun in Malaysia and the number of Covid-19 cases in the country was expected to rise.
“The situation, however, will be under control as the country has a high vaccination rate,” he added.
Health director-general Tan Sri Dr Noor Hisham Abdullah said the number of covid-19 cases reported today was 5,439, bringing the cumulative number to 2,850,408, up from the 4,744 cases recorded yesterday.
