The Health Director-General Datuk Dr Noor Hisham Abdullah also noted in a press conference today that the R0 infection rate is now at 1.72, surpassing the critical point of a R0 at 1.6.
We want to keep R0 below 0.3. If it increases to 1.6, it means we are in dangerous territory and could see an exponential surge of cases.
