The threat brought on by antimicrobial resistance is a key factor driving this reference update, which the secretariat to this day has made every effort to ensure is in accordance with the latest scientific evidence. The third edition of NATIONAL ANTIMICROBIAL GUIDELINE was produced through series of discussions held between the Editorial Board and the team of each discipline. It involved a structured and intensive discussion process to ensure that the content was carefully reviewed and coordinated for consistency. Some new topics have been introduced in this issue, such as `clinical pathways for primary care physicians’, ‘approach to antimicrobial allergies’, while some were revised, such as ‘surgical prophylaxis’. I also which to express my sincerest congratulations and heartfelt gratitude to all those involved in the preparation of this latest edition, led by Datuk Dr. Christopher K.C. Lee, for their commitment during the preparation process. Well done and congratulations. This NATIONAL ANTIMICROBIAL GUIDELINE is undoubtedly one of the essential documents which will benefit all MOH employees irrespective of their expertise and workplace as infections can occur to their patients at anytime and anywhere. I am sure many will look forward to having this updated edition. To all MOH health care workers, let us make this NATIONAL ANTIMICROBIAL GUIDELINE as one of our primary reference in our daily practice.

  • Renewed Concerns in Key ASEAN Economies Politics and Growth Prospects After the First COVID-19 Wave
    Renewed Concerns in Key ASEAN Economies Politics and Growth Prospects After the First COVID-19 Wave August 2020 Contents Summary of COVID-19 in Four Key ASEAN Economies 1 1. Vietnam 2 2. Malaysia 5 3. Thailand 9 4. Indonesia 13 Conclusion 16 References 17 This Special Report is authored by Associate Professor Simon Tay, Chairman, SIIA; Kevin Chen, Research Analyst; Jessica Wau, Assistant Director (ASEAN); and Sarah Loh, Research Analyst. All views expressed in this special report are those of the authors, unless otherwise credited. Introduction This Special Report by the Singapore Institute of International Affairs (SIIA) will examine how key Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) economies – Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand and Vietnam – are emerging after the first wave of the COVID-19 pandemic. From June 2020, these four countries announced the end or easing of their lockdown measures and began to reopen their economies and business sectors. Their prospects matter not only to their own citizens but to the region and to Singapore as a hub, partner and investor. These four key economies represent over 70 per cent of overall ASEAN gross domestic product (GDP).1 This report will consider pre-existing economic and political challenges and how some of these have either stabilised or been sharpened and aggravated by the pandemic. The focus on the pandemic has generally meant that political developments have been muted in the first half of 2020. But as each country emerges from restrictions, political contestations and economic challenges are restarting; there are trends and risks emerging that may well move more quickly in the coming months.

  • Clinical Guidelines on Covid-19 Vaccination in Malaysia ______
    CLINICAL GUIDELINES ON COVID-19 VACCINATION IN MALAYSIA ______________________ Ministry of Health, Malaysia 3rd Edition Executive Summary The number of COVID-19 vaccines available in Malaysia has increased to five i.e Cominarty® (Pfizer-BioNTech), CoronaVac® (Sinovac), ChAdOx1-S (Oxford-AstraZeneca), Ad26.COV2- S®[Recombinant] (Janssen) and ConvideciaTM (CanSinoBio). In general, all the vaccines have shown to be effective and fairly safe with a few important but rare side effects to be aware of. 1. Allergy concern. The suspected allergenic ingredients have not changed for any of the vaccines, which is either polyethylene glycol (PEG) or polysorbate 80. Cominarty® (Pfizer-BioNTech) has PEG while ChAdOx1-S (Oxford-AstraZeneca), Ad26.COV2-S®[Recombinant] (Janssen) and ConvideciaTM (CanSino) have polysorbate-80. CoronaVac® (Sinovac) has neither PEG nor polysorbate-80. With the many different COVID-19 vaccines in our stable, we are provided with an alternative should one develop an allergic reaction to the other. New flow charts have been added as a quick reference guide for people on the ground. To date, Malaysia’s incidence of anaphylaxis following vaccination is quite similar with developed countries. Nonetheless, the importance of reporting cannot be overemphasized. 2. Vaccine induced Immune thrombocytopenic thrombosis. Extremely rare cases of thrombosis occurring with thrombocytopenia have been observed following vaccination with ChAdOx1-S (Oxford-AstraZeneca) and Ad26.COV2-S [Recombinant] (Janssen). This includes some severe cases with thrombosis in different or unusual locations and excessive clotting or bleeding throughout the body. Some cases were life-threatening or had a fatal outcome. Majority of cases occurred within the first 3 weeks following vaccination, though some have also been reported after this period.
