- A Small
- A Medium
- A Bigger
The third wave of the Covid-19 virus in Malaysia had infected 541,224 people by May 27, 2021. With the increasing number of coronavirus infections, the daily oxygen demand in Malaysia has also grown significantly.
According to PATH data, the daily oxygen requirement in Malaysia is estimated to reach 39,503 cylinders of 7m³ each. This is the highest in Southeast Asia, exceeding the daily oxygen needs of the Philippines and Indonesia.
The surge in coronavirus cases in Malaysia is due to the spread of new variants from South Africa, India, and the United Kingdom. Hospital bed occupancy rates in the country continue to rise. According to The Straits Times, hospital bed occupancy is expected to increase further as coronavirus cases in Malaysia continue to climb.
To prevent the spread of the coronavirus, the public is urged to diligently implement the 3M health protocols: wearing masks, maintaining distance, and washing hands with soap. The public is also encouraged to avoid crowds and reduce mobility.
