Daripada maklumat terkini yang dilaporkan ke Crisis Preparedness and Response Centre (CPRC) Kebangsaan, dimaklumkan bahawa tiada pertambahan kes kematian berkaitan COVID-19 hari ini. Justeru, jumlah kumulatif kes kematian COVID-19 di Malaysia adalah kekal sebanyak 98 kes (1.70 peratus daripada jumlah keseluruhan kes).
STATUS TERKINI AKTIVITI PENDEKATAN TERTUMPU (TARGETED APPROACH)
Seperti dimaklumkan sebelum ini, KKM telah mempergiatkan aktiviti pengesanan, penyaringan, ujian, isolasi serta rawatan terutama kepada kumpulan sasar yang berisiko tinggi dengan pendekatan tertumpu (targeted approach). Ini telah dijalankan dengan kerjasama pelbagai agensi kerajaan dan badan bukan kerajaan.
Antara aktiviti-aktiviti pendekatan tertumpu yang dijalankan bagi menghentikan penularan jangkitan COVID-19 adalah seperti Perintah Kawalan Pergerakan Diperketatkan (PKPD) di kawasan-kawasan yang berisiko tinggi, aktiviti pengesanan di madrasah atau sekolah tahfiz, dan stesen kuarantin khususnya bagi Rakyat Malaysia yang pulang dari luar negara. Setakat ini hasil daripada aktiviti pendekatan tertumpu yang dijalankan, KKM telah berjaya mengesan lebih banyak kes positif COVID-19.
Sehingga 26 April 2020 pukul 12 tengah hari, bagi aktiviti PKPD didapati seramai 21,466 orang telah menjalani ujian COVID-19 di dalam kawasan PKPD. Setakat ini, 638 kes didapati positif COVID-19 (2.97 peratus). Didapati bahawa daripada jumlah positif COVID-19 ini, seramai 388 kes (61 peratus) adalah bukan warganegara Malaysia dan baki 250 kes (39 peratus) pula adalah warganegara Malaysia.
PKPD yang mempunyai kes-kes baharu pada hari ini adalah Menara City One Plaza (1 kes baharu, menjadikan jumlah kes sebanyak 52 kes), Malayan Mansion (5 kes baharu, menjadikan jumlah kes sebanyak 12 kes) dan Pusat Bandar Utara serta Sekitar Pasar Borong Kuala Lumpur (9 kes baharu, menjadikan jumlah kes sebanyak 55 kes).
Bagi aktiviti tertumpu di madrasah atau sekolah tahfiz pula, sehingga 25 April 2020, didapati 6,229 orang pelajar, guru dan kakitangan telah menjalani ujian COVID-19. Seramai 341 orang didapati positif COVID-19 (5.47 peratus).
Di stesen kuarantin yang menempat pengembara warganegara Malaysia yang balik dari luar negara, sehingga 24 April 2020 5 petang, didapati seramai 12,672 orang telah menjalani ujian COVID-19. Seramai 139 orang didapati positif COVID-19 (1.1 peratus). Daripada jumlah positif COVID-19 tersebut, negara yang telah dilawati adalah: 99 kes melawat Indonesia, 14 kes melawat United Kingdom, 13 kes telah Singapura, 5 kes melawat Turki, 3 kes melawat Belanda, 2 kes melawat Amerika Syarikat, 1 kes masing-masing melawat Thailand, Perancis dan Bangladesh.
Ini menunjukkan bahawa aktiviti-aktiviti pendekatan tertumpu yang diambil Kerajaan setakat ini telah menunjukkan hasil yang diharapkan. Ini diharap dapat mengekang penularan di kalangan kumpulan yang berisiko tinggi ini. KKM menjangka lebih banyak kes positif akan dikenal pasti dalam masa terdekat ini memandangkan aktiviti pendekatan tertumpu ini masih diteruskan.
NASIHAT KESIHATAN BERKAITAN COVID-19
KKM akan memantau kejadian jangkitan ini dan orang ramai dinasihatkan untuk terus duduk di rumah (stay at home). Sentiasa mengamalkan kebersihan diri yang tinggi seperti kerap membasuh tangan dan mengamalkan sosial yang selamat (sosial distancing) iaitu sekurang-kurangnya 1 meter di antara satu sama lain. Orang awam dipohon untuk memainkan peranan masing-masing dalam menangani kejadian COVID-19 di Malaysia.

PRESS STATEMENT
MINISTRY OF HEALTH MALAYSIA
UPDATES ON THE CORONAVIRUS DISEASE 2019 (COVID-19)
SITUATION IN MALAYSIA
Current Status of Confirmed COVID-19 Cases Who Have Recovered
26 April 2020 – The Ministry of Health (MOH) would like to inform that 100 cases have fully recovered and discharged well today. Cumulatively, 3,862 confirmed COVID-19 cases have been discharged well (66.8% of total cumulative cases). The number of cases discharged well today is more than double the number of additional cases reported today.
Current Situation of COVID-19 in Malaysia
26 April 2020, 12 pm – A total of 38 additional confirmed COVID-19 cases were reported to the National Crisis Preparedness and Response Centre (CPRC) MOH today. Cumulatively there are now 5,780 confirmed COVID-19 cases in Malaysia. Therefore, there are currently 1,820 active and infective COVID-19 cases. They have been isolated and provided treatment.
Currently, 36 confirmed COVID-19 cases are receiving treatment in intensive care units (ICU), and of these, 15 cases are on ventilation support.
Fortunately, no additional COVID-19 deaths were reported to the National CPRC MOH. Cumulatively, there are 98 COVID-19 deaths in Malaysia (1.70% of total cumulative cases).
Current Status of the Targeted Approach Activities
As previously stated, MOH has intensified its detection, screening, testing and isolation activities as well as treatment, especially for high-risk populations or groups via a targeted approach. This is done in collaboration with various government agencies and non-governmental organisations.
Among the activities under the targeted approach to stop the spread of COVID-19 infection includes the Enhanced Movement Control Order (EMCO) in high-risk localities, detection activities in madrasah or tahfiz schools (religious schools), and quarantine stations especially for Malaysians returning from overseas. To date, MOH was able to detect more COVID-19 positive cases through activities under the targeted approach.
As of 26 April 2020, 12 pm, a total of 21,466 individuals had undergone COVID-19 testing within the EMCO localities. To date, 638 individuals (2.97%) were found to be positive for COVID-19. Of these, 388 cases (61%) were non-Malaysians with the remaining 250 cases (39%) were Malaysians.
EMCO localities with additional cases reported today are Menara City One Plaza (1 new case; total 52 cases); Malayan Mansion (5 new cases; total 12 cases) and Pusat Bandar Utara and areas surrounding Pasar Borong Kuala Lumpur (9 new cases; total 55 cases).
For intensified activities in madrasah or tahfiz schools, as of 25 April 2020, a total of 6,229 students, teachers and school staff have undergone COVID-19 testing. To date, 341 individuals were found to be positive for COVID-19 (5.47%).
At the quarantine stations for Malaysians returning from abroad, as of 24 April 2020, 5 pm, a total of 12,672 individuals have undergone COVID-19 testing. To date, 139 individuals were found to be positive for COVID-19 (1.1%). Of these, the countries visited were: 99 cases visited Indonesia, 14 cases visited the United Kingdom, 13 cases visited Singapore, 5 cases visited Turkey, 3 cases visited the Netherlands, 2 cases visited the United States, 1 case each visited Thailand, France and Bangladesh.
These demonstrate that the activities under the targeted approach taken by the Government so far have shown promising results. It is hoped that this will reduce the disease transmission among these high-risk groups. MOH expects more positive cases to be identified in the near future as activities under the targeted approach are still ongoing.
Health Advisory on COVID-19
MOH will continue to monitor the current COVID-19 situation and the public is advised to stay at home. Always maintain a high level of personal hygiene such as washing hands frequently with water and soap, and practise social distancing at least 1 metre away from others. The public is requested to play their part in managing the COVID-19 situation in Malaysia.
Further information on COVID-19 in Malaysia is available through the National CPRC MOH telegram channel; https://t.me/cprckkm. The public will be continuously updated on the latest information.
Thank you.
