Covid-19: Screening all foreign workers could overwhelm state hospitals, says Sabah Health Dept


KOTA KINABALU (Bernama): The Sabah Health Department (JKNS) says it will not be able to conduct Covid-19 screening on all foreign workers in the state if that is a prerequisite to allowing economic sectors to operate again.

Its director Datuk Dr Christina Rundi said government hospitals in Sabah would face many requests if screenings were made compulsory for all foreign workers.
