KUALA LUMPUR, Mar 16 (Sin Chew Daily) — Health minister Datuk Seri Dr Adham Baba said prime minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin would make an announcement at 21:00 tonight on government measures to tackle the COVID-19 outbreak.

However he said the situation now was still containable.

When asked whether the country would be placed on a lockdown, he said, "Wait for the prime minister's announcement."

Klang Valley has the largest number of confirmed COVID-19 cases in the country, followed by Sabah and Johor.

All the 12 cases currently treated at ICUs are linked to the tabligh event at Masjid Seri Petaling.
