Covid-19: PTA council supports masking up in schools again

PETALING JAYA: The National Parent-Teacher Associations Consultative Council (PIBGN) supports the Health Ministry's proposal to enforce the wearing of face masks in schools once again.

Its president Associate Prof Datuk Dr Mohamad Ali Hasan said the measure would help curb a surge in Covid-19 cases following the spread of the XBB.1.16 variant, also known as Arcturus.
