The Malaysian government has extended the lockdown by two weeks, until June 28, 2021. The number of citizens requiring hospitalization and self-isolation (active COVID-19 cases) peaked on Sunday, June 6, 2021, reaching 86,628 cases – the highest number recorded by the Malaysian government during the pandemic.

The lockdown measures are gradually yielding results, with active COVID-19 cases in Malaysia beginning to decline. However, the latest data shows 73,324 active cases as of Sunday, June 13, 2021, with an average of 6,871 new cases per day.

The Malaysian government has banned inter-district travel, social activities, and reduced workforce capacity. This follows the lockdown implemented in early June 2021, as reported by The Straits Times.

The Malaysian Ministry of Health reports that the transmission rate has decreased from 1.0 to 0.96. The number of daily patients is also gradually decreasing.

Citing Malay Mail, the occupancy rate of intensive care unit (ICU) beds has reached 90%. This is down from the Ministry of Health's report of 104% occupancy on June 6.
