Two M’sians exposed to measles case found to be healthy


PETALING JAYA: The Health Ministry has contacted the two passengers exposed to a measles case on board Malaysia Airlines flights recently and they were found to be healthy and did not show any symptoms, says Datuk Dr Noor Hisham Abdullah.

The Health director-general said this was done after the New Zealand Health Ministry notified the Malaysian Health Ministry on April 20 of a measles case involving a passenger on board Flight MH781 from Bangkok to Kuala Lumpur and Flight MH133 from Kuala Lumpur to Auckland on April 14.
