ALL 14 pupils from SK Bukit Sentosa in Rawang, Selangor who came down with mumps are fine but have been ordered to stay indoors until they have recovered, to prevent the virus from spreading.

Selangor Health Department director Datuk Dr Khalid Ibrahim said the children were told to seek medical treatment as soon as the school administration was alerted of the matter by the Hulu Selangor District Health Department and state health department on Nov 8.
