MRCS is on a mission to ensure the vulnerable communities have access to vital items such as oximeter, test kits, and thermometer.

SHAH ALAM - As Malaysia continues to fight the pandemic mostly at home, the Malaysian Red Crescent Society (MRCS) has set up an initiative called #CovidHomeCareKits to distribute 9,000 home care kits to underprivileged patients undergoing home quarantine.

The kits are meant to support Covid-19 positive patients from marginalised groups such as migrants, Orang Asli and the B40 community, with resources to ensure proper care at home.

Each home care kit is equipped with a thermometer, oximeter, basic medicine such as paracetamol, lozenges, oral rehydration salts, hand sanitisers, RTK-Antigen self-test kit as well as masks.
