# “We can see the end of the tunnel now.” Patients in Serdang quarantine centers drop significantly

It has been an uphill battle against the COVID-19 pandemic for Malaysians, as news of overcrowded quarantine centers and hospitals hits the headlines every day.

However, after months of nationwide locking down, Public Health Malaysia has brought forth a piece of good news.

A photo from the Malaysia Agro Exposition Park Serdang (MAEPS), which is currently operating as a quarantine center, shows that many beds are emptied and ready to host another patient.

Yesterday (August 25), Public Health Malaysia has published a Facebook post verifying the photo is legitimate and accurately reflects the situation of MAEPS.

In addition to the empty bed, patients who need oxygen supply also decreased.
