“I still feel people are still out on the streets. While some wet markets are open, I sincerely hope people will stay put, cook their own meals or order in.
“It is only another 10 more days. For the sake of our loved ones, our neighbours and those out there treating the infected, please stay at home,” Maria (above) said in a series of WhatsApp messages to the media today.
Now is also the right time for people to spend more time with their families and connect online with friends, she said.
“Let us stay positive, stay safe and stay at home,” she said.
She was responding to news that Petaling Jaya and Lembah Pantai have the highest number of Covid-19 cases in the country based on the latest data.

It showed that the two areas contributed 96 and 90 cases respectively as of noon yesterday.
The total number of positive Covid-19 cases announced by the Health Ministry yesterday was 1,183. The death toll is now at eight.
The new Perikatan Nasional government had announced the MCO effective March 18.
The army is supposed to be deployed starting today to assist the police in monitoring the MCO.
