ALL 22 pupils of a kindergarten in Sungai Ara, Penang, who were ordered to undergo Covid-19 tests after a teacher tested positive for the coronavirus, have been cleared of the infection risk.

Their parents, who accompanied the children to have their pink quarantine wristbands removed at Dewan Bukit Belah in Teluk Kumbar after wearing them for two days, breathed a sigh of relief now that they can resume their normal lives.
