Health authorities have detected another Covid-19 sub-cluster branching off from infections linked to the gathering at Sri Petaling Mosque.

Health Director-General Datuk Dr Noor Hisham Abdullah announced that the Health Ministry (MoH) detected the new sub-cluster in the district of Rembau in Negeri Sembilan.

According to Dr Noor Hisham, 27 cases from this area have tested positive, with 2 cases in the intensive care unit (ICU). 

He said that the cases started from a meeting held at a school in the area. One of the attendees of this meeting was Case 448, a case identified from the Sri Petaling Mosque gathering cluster.

Then some of the people who went to the meeting became infected and spread the infection to their families at home.

The MoH also posted information about this sub-cluster on their Twitter. You may view the post below:
