Abstract
When the first report of COVID-19 appeared in December 2019 from Wuhan, China, the world unknowingly perceived this as another flu-like illness. Many were surprised at the extreme steps that China had subsequently taken to seal Wuhan from the rest of the world. However, by February 2020, the SARS-CoV-2 virus, which causes COVID-19, had spread so quickly across the globe that the World Health Organization officially declared COVID-19 a pandemic. COVID-19 is not the first pandemic the world has seen, so what makes it so unique in Malaysia, is discussed to avoid a future coronacoma.

the first report of COVID-19 appeared in December 2019 from Wuhan, China, the world unknowingly perceived this as another flu-like illness. Many were surprised at the extreme steps that China had subsequently taken to seal Wuhan from the rest of the world. However, by February 2020, the SARS-CoV-2 virus, which causes COVID-19, had spread so quickly across the globe that the World Health Organization officially declared COVID-19 a pandemic. COVID-19 is not the first pandemic the world has seen, so what makes it so unique in Malaysia, is discussed to avoid a future coronacoma.</p></abstract><kwd-group><kwd>COVID-19</kwd><kwd>SARS-CoV-2</kwd><kwd>Malaysia</kwd><kwd>technology</kwd><kwd>medicine</kwd><kwd>appraisal</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><floats-group><fig id="f1-01mjms27022020_ed" position="float"><label>Figure 1</label><caption><p>Trajectory of the cumulative number of COVID-19 cases in a (a) linear scale and a (b) log scale. The increase in cumulative COVID-19 cases slowed between January 2020 and late February 2020. However, in early March 2020, the case trajectory in these five countries increased significantly 1(a). The increases were most stark from mid-March to 28 March 2020. The trend on the log-scale 1(b) indicates an exponential growth in cumulative cases for three countries—Thailand, Malaysia and Singapore—which was steeper between mid-January and mid-February and then reduced until early March. Overall, the log-scale 1(b) shows two trajectories: a lower trajectory (Brunei and Singapore) and a higher trajectory (Thailand, Malaysia and Indonesia) (<xref rid="b3-01mjms27022020_ed" ref-type="bibr">3</xref>)</p></caption><graphic xlink:href="01mjms27022020_edf1"></graphic></fig><fig id="f2-01mjms27022020_ed" position="float"><label>Figure 2</label><caption><p>(a) Trajectory for cumulative COVID-19-related deaths and (b) daily reported number of COVID-19-related deaths.
