BANGKOK (Reuters): Authorities in Thailand charged a 14-year-old boy with premeditated murder and illegal possession of a firearm on Wednesday (Oct 4) after a shooting spree at a Bangkok mall using what police said was a modified pistol intended to fire blanks.
PETALING JAYA: Although the possibility of Disease X emerging in the country must be kept on the horizon, excessive anxiety must be avoided, says the Health Ministry.
“Although the possibility of the occurrence of Disease X should be noted, excessive anxiety should be avoided. Disease X is the name coined by the World Health Organisation in 2018 for an unknown pathogen with the potential to cause a worldwide epidemic. Compared to Covid-19 which causes less death, Disease X is expected to spread more easily, akin to measles and may be life-threatening like Ebola, he said.
WHO has meanwhile emphasised the need for flexible planning and consolidated preparedness to face Disease X. “To overcome this threat, the WHO emphasises the importance of a transparent scientific process in researching the origin of the virus,” he said.
