Kementerian Kesihatan Malaysia (KKM) telah menemui dua kes pertama individu yang dijangkiti Varian Nigeria SARS-CoV-2, yang juga dikenali sebagai B1.525, di Malaysia.
Kes-kes ini adalah dari dua warganegara asing yang telah tiba dari Dubai, UAE dan didapati positif COVID-19 melalui ujian swab RT PCR. Institut Penyelidikan Perubatan (IMR) selanjutnya melakukan penjujukan genom penuh kerana mengambilkira sejarah perjalanan mereka.
Analisis lebih lanjut menunjukkan adanya semua mutasi yang dilaporkan berkait dengan varian tersebut. Ini termasuk mutasi "spike protein" E484K, Q677H, F888L dan rangkaian “protein deletions” serupa yang dilihat dalam varian UK B.1.1.7. Mutasi "spike protein" E484K juga mendapat perhatian kerana ianya dilaporkan dapat menghindari sistem imun.
Dikenali sebagai B.1.525, varian Nigeria pertama kali dikesan di UK dan Nigeria pada bulan Disember 2020. Sejak dari itu, sebanyak 360 urutan varian ini boleh dijumpai di GISAID, dengan laporan tertinggi dari Denmark (n = 121) , diikuti oleh UK (n = 73) dan Nigeria (n = 56). Varian Nigeria juga boleh menyebabkan peningkatan dalam kebolehjangkitan serta kemungkinan penurunan tindak balas imun.
KKM melalui IMR dan CPRC Kebangsaan akan sentiasa memantau perkembangan mutasi Nigeria B1.525 ini dan akan memaklumkan masyarakat umum dari semasa ke semasa. Walaupun program vaksinasi sedang dilaksanakan, tindakan kesihatan awam masih perlu diamalkan kerana imuniti kelompak masih belum tercapai. Orang ramai dinasihati agar sentiasa mengamalkan kebersihan kendiri dengan kerap membasuh tangan, memakai pelitup muka terutamanya di tempat awam, dan menjaga penjarakan fizikal setiap masa.

The Ministry of Health (MOH) Malaysia has found our first two cases of persons infected with the Nigerian Variant of SARS-CoV-2, also known as B1.525, in Malaysia.
These are from two foreign nationals who had arrived from Dubai, UAE and were found to be COVID-19 positive by a swab RT PCR test. The Institute for Medical Research (IMR) subsequently proceeded to do full genome sequencing due to their travel history.
Further analysis indicated the presence of all the reported mutations corresponding to this variant. This includes protein spike mutations E484K, Q677H, F888L and a similar suite of protein deletions seen in the UK variant B.1.1.7. The E484K protein spike mutation is of high concern as this mutation has been reported to evade the immune system.
Known as B.1.525, the Nigerian variant was first detected in the UK and Nigeria in December 2020. Ever since then, a total of 360 sequences of this variant can be found in GISAID, with the highest submission from Denmark (n=121), followed by UK (n=73) and Nigeria (n=56). The Nigerian variants too may cause increase in transmissibility as well as possible reductions in immune response. MOH through IMR and the National CPRC will constantly monitor the development of this Nigerian B1.525 mutation and will inform the public from time to time. Even with the COVID-19 vaccination programme underway, public health measures must continue to be practiced as we have yet to achieve herd immunity. The public is advised to always practice personal hygiene by washing their hands regularly, wear their face masks especially in public places, and maintaining physical distancing at all times.
California Hits Vaccine Landmark; U.S. Eases Curbs: Virus Update
(March 6, 2021, 6:37 AM GMT+8 Updated on March 6, 2021, 5:11 PM GMT+8)
Over 10 million vaccine doses have been administered in California, the state’s governor Gavin Newsom said in a Twitter post, while the mayor of Los Angeles announced that the city has given half a million shots.
Theme parks and stadiums in California can begin reopening as soon as April 1. Theaters in New York City, the nation’s second-largest movie market, reopened after a yearlong hiatus. Oregon ordered a full return to classrooms, and Arizona said it will ease virus restrictions.
The New York legislature approved a bill to repeal pandemic-era emergency powers afforded to the scandal-plagued Governor Andrew Cuomo. Detroit Mayor Mike Duggan made a surprise announcement reflecting his doubts about Johnson & Johnson’s single-shot vaccine -- and then reversed himself after getting a call from the White House concerned he was off-message.
Disneyland, Stadiums Can Begin Reopening in California April 1
(March 6, 2021, 6:30 AM GMT+8 Updated on March 6, 2021, 8:00 AM GMT+8)
California officials said theme parks and stadiums can reopen as soon as April 1 provided they meet local requirements and take precautions against the coronavirus, marking a key milestone for the most populous U.S. state.
Ballparks and venues for live outdoor performances can reopen on that date, but will have to limit crowds to 100 -- and keep concessions closed -- if the caseloads in their counties keep them in the strictest, purple tier, state officials said Friday. That will expand to 20% when cases fall further.
Theme parks can resume operations when their counties hit the red tier, the second-strictest level. They’ll have to observe a 15% capacity limit. All of the venues will require masks and limit guests to in-state visitors, officials said.
With cases falling, the announcement provides a path to normalcy for companies like Walt Disney Co., SeaWorld Entertainment Inc. and concert promoter Live Nation Entertainment Inc., which have suffered during the shutdown. It also means a few fans can return to baseball stadiums from Oakland to San Diego for the start of the season that day.
“California feels well equipped to take these small but meaningful steps,” Dr. Mark Ghaly, secretary of the California Health and Human Services Agency, said on a conference call. “We will, as I said yesterday, keep our foot on the brakes and not on the gas.”
Outdoor Shutdown Much of the state’s outdoor-entertainment industry has been shut since last March under Covid-19 protocols that were among the strictest in the nation. But California Governor Gavin Newsom, who faces a recall effort tied in part to complaints over business closures, has been moving more swiftly to reopen the state’s economy.
The Major League Baseball season starts April 1. Of the state’s teams, the Oakland A’s, San Diego Padres and Los Angeles Angels are scheduled to play at home on that date. The Los Angeles Dodgers, the reigning world champions, open their season on that date in Colorado, and the San Francisco Giants start their season in Seattle.
Before Friday, the state had said theme parks couldn’t reopen until falling virus caseloads put counties in the lowest, yellow tier. Currently, Los Angeles and Orange counties, home to Comcast Corp.’s Universal Studios and Disneyland, remain in the purple tier, three rungs above that. But both could be days away from reaching the red tier if cases continue to drop.
“This gives some of the bigger employers time to ramp up, to get ready for April 1 and to begin to move forward based on the data and the science,” said Dee Dee Myers, a senior adviser to Newsom and director of the Governor’s Office of Business and Economic Development.
Disney shares rose as much as 3.6% in after-hours trading.
Ken Potrock, president of the Disneyland resort, said he looks forward to reopening this spring and getting thousands of employees back to work. Andrea Zinder, president of the union local that represents retail workers at the Disney parks, said her members too were looking forward to returning after a year on furlough.
The restraints are set to relax further as Covid-19 infections fall. In the red tier, ballpark capacity will start to increase. Concession sales will be primarily in-seat, with no concourse outlets open. In the orange tier, capacity will be limited to 33%, and in the yellow tier capacity will increase to 67%. Attendance will be limited to in-state visitors in all three tiers.
Visiting a theme park will require reservations. There won’t be indoor dining, and capacity restrictions will be in place on indoor rides. Visitor limits will rise to 35% in the least-restrictive, yellow tier, though still limited to in-state guests.

Senate Passes $1.9 Trillion Relief Bill After Marathon
(March 7, 2021, 1:24 AM GMT+8 Corrected March 7, 2021, 11:41 AM GMT+8)
President Joe Biden’s signature $1.9 trillion Covid-19 relief bill passed the Senate 50-49 on Saturday following a more than 25-hour marathon of amendment votes completed after Democrats settled an intra-party dispute over unemployment aid.
The measure, the American Rescue Plan Act, now heads back to the House, where Majority Leader Steny Hoyer said a vote will be held Tuesday. Although some House progressives have complained about changes made by the Senate, none so far have threatened to withhold votes. Democrats aim to have it signed into law next week.
Enactment of the second-largest stimulus bill in U.S. history would hand Biden his first legislative victory and set the stage for work this spring on a massive infrastructure and manufacturing recovery bill that he wants.
“As tough as this moment is, there are brighter days ahead -- there really are,” Biden said at the White House after the Senate acted. “It’s never been a good bet to bet against America.”
The bill would provide the biggest health-care expansion since the Affordable Care Act, a temporary plan to slash the child poverty rate and send $1,400 payments soon to millions of Americans. In addition, state and local governments are set to get more than $350 billion in aid and schools would get an infusion of funding, all of which Democrats hope will propel a faster economic recovery long before they face voters in 2022.
It would deliver $300 a week in extra unemployment assistance through Sept. 6 and make the first $10,200 of unemployment insurance benefits non-taxable for households with incomes of less than $150,000. The legislation includes $160 billion for vaccine and testing programs to help stop the spread of the coronavirus. The Senate also adopted a bipartisan amendment from Republican Lisa Murkowski of Alaska and Democrat Joe Manchin of West Virginia to direct $800 million toward alleviating youth homelessness.
Overall, the legislation is double the size of the Obama-era stimulus and exceeded many earlier Wall Street estimates for how big a package could Democrats pass with the thinest margin of control. It is eclipsed in size only by the $2.2 trillion pandemic aid plan passed a year ago.
The Democratic drive in the Senate stalled out for nearly 12 hours on Friday after Manchin -- a pivotal vote in the 50-50 Senate -- balked at an amendment to extend supplemental unemployment benefits into October.
As Republicans tried to lure Manchin to vote for a proposal by Senator Rob Portman of Ohio that would extend the benefits only through July 18, Democrats from Biden on down furiously lobbied Manchin and reworked their earlier plan to get his support.
Negotiations on that amendment caused a separate vote on minimum wage that set a record for the longest vote in Senate history, dragging on for nearly 12 hours as Democrats tried to keep their caucus united. In the end, the provision was left out of the legislation because of arcane Senate budget rules.
Despite that stumble, passage was a major victory for Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, who aimed to show that Democrats could wield power despite the 50-50 Senate split.
The deals he brokered on stimulus payments and unemployment aid, as well as the addition of a dozen smaller changes, ensured that moderate Democrats like Manchin and Arizona’s Kyrsten Sinema were on board along with progressives like Senate Finance Chairman Ron Wyden. That may also help in the House, where progressives were already angered over the loss of the minimum wage provision.
Democrats held together to reject Republican amendments on limiting state and local aid; restricting abortion funding; banning aid to schools that have transgender athletes or fail to open 5 days a week; and ending aid to minority farmers, among others
Schumer said the vote showed Republicans that if they don’t negotiate, Democrats are prepared to act on their own.
KERAJAAN Perikatan Nasional (PN) perlu menyusun kerangka ke arah menamatkan sepenuhnya aktiviti berteraskan perjudian dari terus beroperasi di dalam negara ini. Ianya dapat dilaksanakan dengan tidak lagi diberi sambungan untuk melanjutkan perlesenan setelah tamat tempohnya yang akan datang.
Untuk merealisasikannya kerajaan mesti memiliki iltizam politik untuk tidak menjadikan cukai dari sektor tersebut sebagai perolehan hasil kewangan negara. Biarpun memberi nilai sangat besar berbilion ringgit, hakikatnya ia tidak harus menjadi sumber pendapatan apatah lagi sebagai kebergantungan.
Jangan kerana ‘pulangan lumayan’, kerajaan bersikap ‘menutup mulut’ atau ragu-ragu dari kebenaran bahawa perjudian sama ada berlesen atau tidak, ianya tetap haram di sisi Islam. Malah yakinlah, ketegasan ini akan mendapat sokongan moral rakyat, sekali gus membersihkan kantung negara.
Lebih dari itu, apabila kasino di Genting Highland dapat ditamatkan, pasti tindakan untuk menutup sama nombor ramalan, loteri, lumba kuda, tikam ekor dan perjudian lain akan lebih mudah. Demikian itu juga perjudian terselindung pasti akan dapat ditangani bila ia menjadi kejanggalan dalam masyarakat.
U.S. Economy Ready to Surge With Big Stimulus, Fast Vaccines
(March 7, 2021, 2:00 AM GMT+8 Updated on March 7, 2021, 3:41 AM GMT+8)
~ Growth estimates have jumped in light of recent developments
~ Gains may give some pause on massive infrastructure package
With Democrats on the verge of passing an almost $2 trillion stimulus bill and Covid-19 vaccinations moving ahead, the U.S. economic outlook is much sunnier than it looked in early January.
The latest Bloomberg monthly survey of economists shows the annualized pace of growth in the first quarter will be 4.8%, twice as fast as respondents expected just two months ago. For the full year, gross domestic product is projected to rise 5.5%, which would be the fastest since 1984 and is up from January’s estimate of 4.1%.
After January’s key run-off elections in Georgia, where Democrats secured two Senate seats to win slim control of the chamber from Republicans, economists were generally penciling in a pandemic relief package worth around $1 trillion. Democrats stuck together to push through a bill almost double that size; no Republican senators voted for the plan on Saturday. The measure next goes back to the House for a final vote, expected to be Tuesday.
President Joe Biden, speaking Saturday after the Senate vote, looked for a major boost to the economy.
“This will create millions of new jobs,” Biden told reporters at the White House. “It’s estimated over 6 million new jobs by itself; increase the gross domestic product by a trillion dollars.”
“As tough as this moment is, there are brighter days ahead -- there really are,” Biden said. “It’s never been a good bet to bet against America.”
An additional round of $1,400 stimulus checks for millions of Americans, combined with supplemental jobless benefits and the acceleration in vaccinations, should help sustain growth throughout the year, said Stephen Stanley, chief economist at Amherst Pierpont Securities LLC.
Government stimulus will “give a shot of adrenaline for a short period of time,” Stanley said. He noted that “it will kind of fade out, and the more fundamental aspect of things, which is really just opening up and getting back to something closer to the pre-pandemic norm for activity, should kick in.”
