According to Noor Hisham, most of them were infected in the community they live in and not in the facilities they work in.

Speaking on an online engagement session that involved prominent members of the medical community, the numbers presented were indeed shocking.

A total of 936 frontliners from the Royal Malaysian Police (PDRM) were also infected.
