China’s TV network names Malaysia’s Health DG among ‘doctors at the top’ during Covid-19 pandemic
Wednesday, 15 Apr 2020 05:47 PM MYT

PETALING JAYA, April 15 — Health director-general Datuk Dr Noor Hisham Abdullah has been named among the “top doctors” in the world, thanks to his straightforward approach in handling the outbreak in the country.

China Global TV Network listed Dr Noor Hisham as one of the three leading doctors in the fight to stop the spread of the Covid-19 virus, alongside America’s Dr Anthony Fauci and New Zealand’s Ashley Bloomfield.

These three medical professionals have received heaps of praise over the past weeks and months for being a “calming” and “trustable” source of information and facts during the pandemic to their countrymen.

With world leaders, like US President Donald Trump, unclear with his messages about the virus, honest and timely dissemination of facts have led these men to emerge as the face or voice of reason to their country’s response to Covid-19.  

Dr Noor Hisham, 56, who has been the director-general since 2013, has been dubbed a “trusted face” by Malaysians thanks to his consistent updates about the virus onto his social media platforms, relying on facts and figures to make decisions and inform the public.

Dr Noor Hisham updates the public on social media late into the night, even after anticipated long working hours, looking visibly more tired every passing day.

Dr Fauci and Bloomfield have also been calming and informative influences in their countries as well, as both men have also consistently kept the public updated giving interviews whenever possible and work long hours as well.

Dr Fauci, 79, was reported to be working nearly 16 to 18 hours a day for the past few weeks, prompting people to be “worried” whenever they don’t see the veteran during a White House briefing.

Bloomfield has also received extensive praise for “diligent” and “clear” responses when speaking with the press, with New Zealanders even petitioning for him to be named as “New Zealander of the Year” thanks to his contributions.

While Dr Noor Hisham has received a lot of love from social media users on all his posts, with many thanking him for his efforts, fans of Dr Fauci and Bloomfield have gone one step further—creating fan accounts about them on social media.

Dr Fauci has been labelled a “coronavirus crush” and “national treasure” by The Atlantic and The New York Times, with nearly 15,000 people also signing a Change.org petition to get him voted as People Magazine’s Sexiest Man Alive 2020.

Dr Noor Hisham’s admirers aren’t as googly-eyed but still constantly make it a point to thank and praise him saying that “Malaysia is lucky to have” him.

Malaysia enters its 29th day since the Movement Control Order (MCO) was put in effect to stop the spread of the Covid-19 virus.

Today also marks the commencement of the third two-week phase of the MCO.

Noor Hisham antara wajah paling dipercayai

NAMA tiga tokoh perubatan kini menjadi perhatian dunia dan digelar ‘wajah paling dipercayai’.

Seorang daripada figura berkenaan adalah Ketua Pengarah Kesihatan Malaysia, Datuk Dr Noor Hisham Abdullah yang digelar pahlawan, sumber inspirasi dan hero oleh pengikutnya di laman Facebook.

Portal China Global Television Network (CGTN) melaporkan, selain Noor Hisham, dua lagi tokoh perubatan yang mendapat perhatian adalah Dr Anthony Fauci dari Amerika Syarikat (AS) dan Dr Ashley Bloomfield dari New Zealand.

Ketiga-tiga tokoh perubatan itu menampilkan sisi berbeza dalam waktu membimbangkan dunia ketika ini dengan menyampaikan maklumat dan saranan kesihatan untuk menenangkan orang awam.

Kira-kira dua bulan lalu, tiada sesiapa mengenali ketiga-tiga lelaki berkenaan namun, hari ini nama mereka disebut-sebut malah diberi gelaran ‘buah hati’, ‘bintang rock’ dan ‘hero negara’ di sosial media.

Fauci, 79, adalah Pengarah Institut Alergi dan Penyakit Berjangkit AS (NIAD) manakala, Bloomfield, 54, dan Noor Hisham, 56, adalah ketua pengarah kesihatan di kementerian kesihatan negara masing-masing.

Mereka juga bukan menteri kabinet namun, bertanggungjawab untuk menyampaikan perkembangan terkini keadaan semasa pandemik Covid-19.

Walaupun ada masanya kerajaan bertindak lambat atau mengeluarkan arahan yang mengelirukan, ketiga-tiga tokoh ini akan memainkan peranan untuk memastikan orang awam kekal tenang dengan menyampaikan fakta meyakinkan.

Fauci mengetuai NIAD sejak 1984 dan menjadi penasihat perubatan kepada enam presiden AS serta pernah ‘memerangi’ HIV/AIDS, Zika dan Ebola.

Noor Hisham pula menyandang jawatan Ketua Pengarah Kesihatan sejak 2013 dan masih menjalankan tugas sebagai perunding kanan dan pakar bedah endokrin di Hospital Putrajaya.

Manakala, Bloomfield sebelum ini bertugas di United Kingdom dan New Zealand serta pernah menyertai Pertubuhan Kesihatan Sedunia (WHO) di Geneva.

Fauci dilaporkan bertugas antara 16 hingga 18 jam sehari sejak beberapa minggu lalu dan melayani sesi temubual dengan semua rangkaian televisyen yang ada.

Noor Hisham pula belum pernah gagal membuat hantaran di Twitter dan Facebook walaupun pada lewat malam untuk memberikan maklumat terkini berkaitan situasi Covid-19 di Malaysia.

Lebih menarik lagi, hari Bloomfield mengambil cuti rehat menjadi tajuk utama akhbar di New Zealand bulan lalu dengan paparan “Akhirnya Bloomfield Mengambil Cuti Sehari”.
