Covid-19: No Delta variant in Sibu, says local committee


SIBU (Bernama): There are no Covid-19 cases in Sibu linked to the Delta variant, says the Sibu Divisional Disaster Management Committee (SDDMC).

It said the now-viral news claiming that the variant is present in the city is most likely due to the case of an Indonesian who tested positive for Covid-19 on July 7 and is currently being treated at the Sibu Hospital.
