KUANTAN: Symptomatic caregivers are urged not to accompany sick family members in the hospital, following the outbreak of a mini-cluster at a hospital in Temerloh.

Mentri Besar Datuk Seri Wan Rosdy Wan Ismail said he was saddened by the report that a mini-cluster involving Wad Kenanga 6 at Hospital Sultan Haji Ahmad Shah stemmed from a symptomatic caregiver.

"The caregiver in question is found to have a link with a positive Covid-19 case in the Felda Jengka 7 settlement in Maran, or known as the Rantau Kenanga cluster," Wan Rosdy said on Sunday . It included two deaths of patients cared for by the symptomatic caregiver, a 71-year-old patient who was the caregiver's father, died on June 9 and another died on June 8.
