Confirmed Covid-19 cases in Malaysia have surged after 5 March, jumping to 117 on 9 March 2020. Fears over the spreading coronavirus are causing entertainment and event organisers to take extra precautions with mass gatherings. As worries over the virus continue to grow, so too does the list of events and concerts that are being called off.
While some concert-goers tweeted out that they are disappointed that they will have to wait longer to see their favourite artistes in the flesh, others are relieved by the news – feeling they won’t be able to enjoy a performance with the threat of Covid-19 still at large.
