Media minister Sunday warned against the “sharp” increase of daily COVID-19 tests, with 4.44 positive tests recorded today.
Minister of State for Media Affairs Sakher Dudin said in a statement the spike in the daily positive COVID-19 tests is “alarming,” emphasising the coronavirus still poses a threat.
Dudin urged people to abide by the health measures and social distancing protocol and to receive the vaccine, saying “it is the responsibility of everyone to protect themselves and their loved ones.”
He highlighted the prime minister’s decision to enforce Defence Order (32) of 2021, which puts certain caveats on workers who have not yet had the vaccine.
Dudin emphasised the government, through its inspection teams, will intensify its visits to ensure both public and private institutions abide by the health-related defence orders.
