‘Don’t lie to health workers’


PETALING JAYA: More health experts have come forward to warn patients seeking treatment in healthcare facilities not to lie to frontliners about the status of their exposure to Covid-19, calling it an act of betrayal.

This came following a warning from Health director-general Tan Sri Dr Noor Hisham Abdullah after a doctor shared on Facebook that she had tested positive after being exposed to an infected patient.
