KUCHING: Sarawak has closed three kindergartens for two weeks as a precaution against the spread of hand foot and mouth disease (HFMD).
“HFMD is endemic in Sarawak, so this is nothing new. The number of cases recorded so far this year is fewer than in the corresponding period last year and has not reached the warning level of 53 cases in a week,” said Deputy Chief Minister Tan Sri Dr George Chan.
