Another 10 schools in Kuala Terengganu ordered to close

Jan 25, 2021

10 more primary schools in Kuala Terengganu have been ordered to close for a week until Saturday for sanitisation works, after two were made to close for the same reason last week.

This, following findings that individuals who were Covid-19-positive had been at those premises.

Low risk and Covid-19 quarantine centre in Serdang has clarified that it can still accommodate patients, following viral videos allegedly showing congestion at the place.

Health officials say the average number of beds used at the centre is between 3,000 and 3,500 and so far there are still about 5,000 beds available.

3,346 new Covid-19 cases were reported yesterday, with a new high for recoveries with 4,427 patients cured.

This means the number of total active cases declined for the second consecutive day after 14 days of increase.

There are currently about 41 thousand active cases.
