Over 10k Covid-19 patients in N Sembilan aged 18-60

 

A total of 10,834 or 65 percent of 16,676 Covid-19 patients in Negeri Sembilan as of May 27 are those aged between 18 and 60.

State Health director Dr Harlina Abdul Rashid said this was because they were the active age group and more vulnerable to infection as they often have to go out, either for studies, work or social activities.

“Almost 4,000 of the patients are those aged above 61 with Seremban having the highest number.

“The state’s youngest Covid-19 patient is a newborn and the oldest is 90 years old,” he told Bernama.

Yesterday, Negeri Sembilan recorded 586 new positive cases of Covid-19, bringing the cumulative total to 27,288.
