Hospital staff forced into quarantine

GEORGE TOWN: As Penang braces for a possible spike in Covid-19 cases, 59 members of a medical team from the Penang Adventist Hospital (PAH) were forced into quarantine after coming in direct contact with a patient from Kulim, Kedah, who sought treatment there.

Two doctors and 57 nurses were ordered to home quarantine after the 56-year-old woman later tested positive for Covid-19.
