Measat Global has warned users via a Facebook post of a potential service outage for services offered through the satellite communications company's Measat-3a, Measat-3b, and Measat-3d satellites due to solar radiation.

PETALING JAYA: While much attention has been given to Covid-19 over the past few years, the re-emergence of “forgotten diseases” such as tuberculosis should be a cause for concern, say medical experts.

Prof Sharifa Ezat said people may be infected but appear to be well until their immune system deteriorates due to old age or illnesses such as diabetes. In such cases, the TB may flare up. Fomema’s health screening system is effective in preventing the entry of infectious diseases through foreigners, she said.“Our Fomema screening is definitely quite strict, so whatever disease a migrant worker has, it may only become apparent later on.“So, in TB cases too, there might be a time phase called latent TB where the usual customary tests may yield a very low or no response although the person may be a carrier.

Malaysian Medical Association president Dr Azizan Abdul Aziz said the medical screening by Fomema has been effective and provided comprehensive medical screening of foreign workers before they can work in the country.
