IN A bid to look out for the safety and welfare of non-governmental organisations and individuals involved in flood relief efforts, a specialist hospital in Johor Baru sponsored Covid-19 swab tests for those involved in volunteer work in Covid-19 red zone areas.

KPJ Bandar Dato’ Onn Specialist Hospital chief executive officer Noor Haslina Harun said the move, in collaboration with the Iskandar Malaysia Social Hero Awards (Imsha) winners network, was their way of showing appreciation to volunteers who have been helping flood victims.
