The Malta Association of Public Health Medicine has spoke out against the irresponsible actions of the government with respect to COVID-19 measures and restrictions, reporting that health services are being exhausted.
The association warned that the situation will get worse, shortly after the country registered a record 563 cases in one week.
Earlier today, a group group of immigrants were relocated from Malta to Germany following an agreement between the two countries.
The news of relocation comes only a few weeks after another group of immigrants left Malta for France.
These relocations are being co-ordinated by the European Commission, part of an initiative aimed at mitigating the burden of immigration imposed on Malta.
Malta has reached the highest-ever amount of active cases at 940 after the Health Ministry announced a record-high amount of 111 cases in 1 day.
The island now stands at 940 total active cases out of 4,048 cases.
The Union of Professional Educators has called for the immediate closure of schools with relation to an alleged COVID-19 case who involuntarily affected their parents.
Alarmed at the recent surge in cases, the union threatens industrial actions if schools close and return to complete online learning.
The UPE has also noted that the workforce has decreased drastically due to a considerable amount of teachers being held in quarantine or on sick leave.
