Ramai yang tertanya, kenapa Ujian PCR perlu digantikan dengan Ujian RTK-Ag untuk mengawal wabak #COVID19Malaysia sekarang? Ini adalah bebenang (harap bersabar)

1.Walaupun Ujian PCR sgt sensitive(kadang-kala boleh mengesan virus COVID19 yg telah mati),ia mengambil masa

yg sgt lama utk diproses

2.Walaupun negara kita mempunyai kapasiti untuk memproses hampir 70k ujian setiap hari, malah ujian ini tidak mencukupi utk wabak ini. 70k ini tidak mengambil kira ujian yang dibawa kedepan dari hari sebelumnya atau backlog)

3.Dgn adanya backlog yg besar,kadar ujian yang boleh dijalankan pd hari itu akan semakin bertambah-inilah sebabnya memprosesan PCR mengambil masa 2-7 hari (mengikut beban kerja&backlog)
4.Penggunaan RTK-Ag tidak memerlukan pemprosesan di makmal khas&keputusan ujian boleh

1. Pandemik ini x boleh diambil ringan.Kepatuhan SOP yg giat dipraktikan rakyat/pekerja akan menjadi sia-sia jika majikan mengambil ringan&tidak melaporkan kes #covid19malaysia yg berlaku di tmpt kerja.Ini bukan shj membahayakan kesihatan pekerja,malah kesihatan rkyt secara total

2. Majikan yg menyorok kes positif di kalangan pekerja akan mengakibatkan penularan di kalangan masyarakat setempat.Ini menjadi tanggungjawab sivik sebagai rakyat&majikan utk memastikan laporan dibuat supaya langkah2 pembersihan,ujian&isolasi kes pekerja boleh dilakukan dgn awal

3. Kerajaan perlu memastikan bahawa setiap kes positif mesti dilaporkan oleh pengamal perubatan/makmal apabila didapati. Pihak pengamal juga mesti dilindungi dari ancaman jika telah melaporkan kes. Melaporkan kes positif ini adalah perkara yang perlu dipandang serius.Pekerja bole

Salam Ulang Tahun #COVID19Malaysia Pertama
Malaysia akan terperangkap didalam satu kitaran PKP yang berterusan jika ia tidak melakukan perakara yang asas didalam usaha mitigasi untuk mengurangkan kes COVID-19
google.com/amp/s/www.mala…

Kaedah Find-Test-Trace-Isolate-Support (FTTIS) masih tidak beroperasi dgn berkesan.
KKM berdegil dgn pengunaan PCR
PCR ujian yg baik untuk kegunaan diagnostik & rawatan dihospital.
Tetapi ia lembab & tidak merupakan alat terpilih kesihatan awam utuk saringan COVID-19 di medan.

KKM mesti tukar ASAP kpd ujian pantas antigen (RTK-Ag)
Ia boleh diagnos COVID-19 dlm masa 1 jam
Ia tidak memerlukan makmal yang canggih & mahal.
Kes positif boleh diberitahu cepat-sehari aje-boleh diisolasi.
Dlm 2 hari contact tracing boleh dijlnkan & kuarantin boleh dilaksana.

What I said in Mar 2020 holds true today.
All of our efforts to combat COVID-19 would remain futile if our leaders do not lead by example and walk the talk.
If the minister who preaches daily on TV about the nation’s pandemic situation is “cakap tak serupa bikin” ...

And the head of the healthcare services practices double standards and bow to the whims and fancies of the politicians, then the nation will perpetually remain at the mercy of the coronavirus and will be continually trapped in a vicious cycle of MCOs.

Saya telah menerima pelbagai mesej video pesakit #COVID19 dengan pelbagai teori.Ada menyatakan tidak mengalami symptom dan ada yang menyatakan symptom mereka begitu teruk sehingga tidak boleh bernafas.Saya ingin menjelaskan hakikat yang perlu masyarakat tahu (ini adalah bebenang)

1.Pesakit yang mengalami #COVID19Msia boleh dikategorikan kepada 5- dari pesakit yang tiada symptom (asymptomatic- Tahap 1) sehingga yang memerlukan bantuan pernafasan (Tahap 5). Seperti kluster Tahfiz- ramai (≈70% asymptomatic) dan 30% yang mempunyai symptom (Tahap 2 ke atas)

2.Walaupun ada beberapa tahap, kami tidak boleh menjangka siapa yang akan kena tahap yang mana. Cuma yang kami tahu- orang yang berumur dan orang yang mempunyai masalah kesihatan (kencing manis, darah tinggi dsb) yang berisiko untuk menjangkiti Tahap yang tinggi.

Present COVID predicament wud have been averted if KKM had heeded SOP:
1 Quarantined Sabah returnees who r Super-Spreader(SS) persons
2 Re-tested returnees from Sabah PRN- SS event
3 Dealt appropriately with prison & detention centre clusters- SS event
bernama.com/en/general/new…

OK! Its now water under the bridge.
BUT, their obsession with MCO will inflict collateral damage to poverty/mental health/malnutrition/domestic violence/education/kill livelihoods/explode unemployed numbers, bankrupt SMEs and run down this nation’s economy thevibes.com/articles/opini…

We will b in a perpetual cycle of MCO because KKM is stuck with an archaic pandemic playbook.
Since Oct 2020 they ignored the advice of public health experts from academia, military & those outside KKM to re-strategize their pandemic management. codeblue.galencentre.org/2020/10/12/mak…

Excellent!! @CNBC's #TheNEWSwithSHEPARDSMITH!! 👍👊
Wish I had discovered it sooner instead of focusing on #GlobalWatch on @CGTNOfficial, scheduled at exactly the same time! Can always catch up on @CGTNOfficial's #TheWorldToday scheduled later at 13.00/14.00/15.00 MYT! 🤜🤛

@NEWSCNBC "The News with Shepard Smith, a daily evening newscast launched in fall 2020." So haven't been missing it for too long?! 🧐 No wonder haven't come across it b4 (whilst news channel surfing - my idiosyncrasy) but only very recently (whilst programming my TV news 4d day)!

@donlemon Absolutely IRRESPONSIBLE of @realDonaldTrump to accuse doctors, risking their lives treating #COVID19usa patients, of putting their deaths down to #COVID19/not their underlying conditions for financial gain - someone should EDUCATE @POTUS about #underlyingconditions!!

@realDonaldTrump FYI I have an underlying condition for Covid19: asthma - if I catch #Covid19Malaysia, I'll die from #COVID19, not asthma!!

1/ Successes of Public Health (PH) is largely invisible
They go unreported-out of sight out of mind!
PH funding < Sec/Tertiary/Curative/Tehab
eg Success of Vaccines-Took us 15 years to get PCV in our Nat Imm Program in 2020
But 1 case of polio/diphtheria-Msia goes hysterical!

2/ To detect #COVID19 before it spreads, PH needs FREQUENT/ACCESSIBLE/RAPID TESTING
We cannot detect pre/asymptomatic cases before they spread if we do not test FREQUENTLY
RTK-Ag picks out the infectious cases.
A powerful test for #COVID19 contagiousness
youtube.com/embed/4vvgefwK…

3/ RTK-Ag perform best in areas of active transmission
And when collected from a case with highest viral loads (most infectious)
2 days before (pre/asymptomatic) and up to 5-7 days after symptom onset
Rapid testing=Rapid isolation=Faster control of spread=Containment

On-point @ProfAdeeba
Didn’t they preach 3Cs?
Distance>2m+Talk<15 min+Mask are NOT high COVID risk!
CMCO is an OVERKILL
-Kills livelihoods
-Kills economy
-Harms mental health
-Spawns national HYSTERIA
Why punish MakCikKiah who wants to put food on table?
astroawani.com/berita-malaysi…

COVID-19 + MCOs disproportionately burdens low rank/paid workers aka #MakcikKiah selling goreng pisang at PPR flats
Causes big holes in their pockets and brains-anxiety/depression/suicides
M’sia MUST use all tools available NOT JUST MCOs! WHO dah kata-kan? malaymail.com/news/what-you-…

Unlike @DrAmarMOH others blurt nos without analysis of trends
Downtrending of unlinked cases=decreasing community spread
Data speaks against CMCO
RTK-Ag as part of pop-level strategy to “sweep” & isolate infected individuals is the way fwd to contain/eliminate #COVID19Malaysia

India-1.3B pop-6M COVID cases-2nd to US
Study of 85K cases & 600K contacts
5% caused 80% COVID infections-Pareto Logic
Selective Lockdown of high risk/super-spreader people/events NOT entire nation
Think beyond Ro.
Think “k” over-dispersed COVID bug

Politicians+Elections r SUPER-SPREADER persons+events
1 mass event+few politicians will sky-rocket #COVID19Malaysia
We r struggling to control/contain COVID

I EMPATHIZE with you (Remember the word "EMPATHY" ~ @MichelleObama, re: "America's Choice 2020: The Democratic National Convention" or the lack of it?! Re: #TantrumP2020, Global #COVIDIOT No.1). Take care! 👊

I don't know if I can use similar terminology for my post mid-August 2015 21-day hospital admission for severe asthma recovery, complicated by prolonged insomnia, induced by the second component of my asthma medication (changed during the 6 weeks' follow up after discharge)!

Plus Adrenal Insufficiency (caused by the Discharge Medical Officer failing to taper down my 30mg a day Prednisolone, prescribed for 17 of the 21 days I was hospitalised, to bring down the inflammation in my lungs).

@DrAmarMOH I apologize for previously taking you to task for criticisizing @KKMPutrajaya's daily numbers of #COVID19Malaysia detection tests, quoting @DGHisham facing reagents shortage & telling you with RT-PCR reagents logistics is a real issue especially in a crisis situation!

*as

And reminding you of @DGHisham's target of 16,500 tests daily by the following week! But I realized after his daily update today that "next week" is now last week! 🙊 And he's now no longer quoting issues with "reagents" but the "slowness" of RT-PCR: its up to 10 hours last week;
