Malaysia's Path To Covid-19 Endemicity

After more than 600 days in the grip of the Covid-19 pandemic, Malaysia is seeing an easing of daily new infections amid a high vaccination rate with nearly 90% of the adult population fully vaccinated. Have we weathered the worst of the pandemic? We discuss the possible pandemic trajectory in Malaysia as well as the transition to an endemic phase of the virus with infectious diseases expert Dato' Prof. Dr. Adeeba Kamarulzaman.

Prof. Adeeba was a panelist at the Khazanah Megatrends Forum 2021 held this week.
