Covid-19: Gawai eve celebration led to new cluster in Sarawak

KUCHING: A Gawai eve celebration led to a new Covid-19 cluster involving three longhouses in Sarawak's Kanowit district.

The state disaster management committee said the Nanga Tada cluster stemmed from a miring (ritual sacrifice) ceremony on May 31 as well as social interaction and close contact among the villagers at the Nanga Tada resettlement scheme.
