This new COVID-19 allowance that Tun Dr. Mahathir just announced, is part of the newly-announced 2020 Economic Stimulus Package to help Malaysia tackle the economic impact of the COVID-19 coronavirus crisis.

This was what the Director General of Health, Malaysia Ministry of Health, Datuk Dr. Noor Hisham Abdullah, just shared :

KKM mengambil maklum pengumuman berkaitan Pakej Rangsangan Ekonomi 2020 oleh YAB Tun Dr Mahathir Mohammad, Perdana Menteri Malaysia sebentar tadi.

KKM menyambut baik langkah kerajaan untuk memberikan elaun khas sebanyak RM400 sebulan bagi doktor dan kakitangan perubatan lain yang secara langsung terdedah kepada risiko jangkitan penyakit koronavirus 2019 (COVID-19). Elaun khas ini telah diumumkan akan berkuatkuasa dari Februari 2020 hingga wabak COVID-19 ini berakhir.

Elaun khas ini merupakan satu pengiktirafan terhadap pengorbanan petugas kesihatan di lapangan yang melaksanakan tugas berisiko tinggi dalam tindakan kesiapsagaan dan respons bagi menghadapi penularan jangkitan COVID-19.

Terima kasih diucapkan di atas tanda penghargaan ini. Semoga ianya menjadi pendorong dan pembakar semangat bagi petugas kesihatan dalam melaksanakan tugas demi memelihara kesihatan dan keselamatan rakyat negara ini.
