PETALING JAYA: Workplaces and detention centres were the source of 35% of all Covid-19 cases over the past two months, making them the top clusters as the country battles a high tide of infections.
The Health Ministry reported 158,789 Covid-19 cases in a 60-day period from Dec 7 last year to Feb 4 this year.
The Star did an analysis of the daily figures from this period and found that 29.2% (46,411 cases) were linked to clusters detected from targeted worker screenings at factories, construction sites, security companies and other workplaces.
