ICU case cat 4/5 covid patients menaik? Vaccine 2 dose tak berkesan dah ke? Lockdown balik lah macam ni.
Sebelum korang panik, lets understand whats happening and why vaccines are just a small but important factor in this endemic:
Vaccine alone don’t prevent the spread of infections. Combining them with other measures/SOPs do i.e ventilation, mask usage, avoid crowd, TRIIS, reduce risk factors (untuk mereka yang ada penyakit lain), boosters vax, etc)
Vaccine 2 dose tu dah tak berkesan ke?
Kita dah lihat keberkesanan vaksin di Malaysia bukan? The Delta variant + waning vaccine antibodies — are causing more breakthrough infections BUT vaccines still gives us protection against hospitalization and death.
So vaccine booster boleh tolong turunkan case icu tu ke?
Yes. Mereka yang berusia /high-risk group di galakkan untuk mengambil booster. Whoever got booster are 20x less likely to get seriously ill from covid, and 10x less likely to be infected. Get your booster shots!
Bila patutnya ambil booster dose? 3 bulan? 6 bulan?
Theres no definite answer to the best timing for a booster dose sebab masih dalam research. Konsep dia sama je macam kita kecik2 dulu ambil tetanus or whooping cough booster vaccine.
Kenapa tiba2 case icu naik selepas tak lockdown?
Our “level of exposure” to the virus adalah salah satu sebab. Imagine duduk dalam satu bilik dgn orang yg covid +ve untuk tempoh yg lama. Lagi banyak virus yang kita sedut >>> lagi susah immune sistem kita nak lawan virus tu.
As COVID becomes an endemic, we’ll need to keep a constant eye on the interaction between vaccines and the virus.
The virus may start to burn out, but it’s also possible it might continually evolve and evade vaccines, like the flu does.

Bila dapat timb menteri kesihatan tone deaf macam ni lah. Tak payah tunggu doktor kontrak kena buang, depa dah #quitkkm ramai2 sebab masalah 5 tahun tak selasai! @HKontrak
No one said kerajaan did nothing. Tapi 5 tahun nak dapatkan solution? Sampai sekarang pun short extension. Benda paling utama, Malaysia healthcare kot. Vellfire menteri tu kejap je decide. PRIORITY!
Kontrak extend 4 tahun pun tak paham apa rasional dia nak bongkak. Dalam tempoh tu nak tunggu dapat kepakaran, habis training pun entah sempat tak. Senior dr pun xdpt lg. 2 tahun habis jaga covid. Kriteria pemilihan sampai sekarang takda jawapan.
