KOTA KINABALU: Another Covid-19 cluster involving an educational institute in Sabah has been detected.

The cluster, known as the Lorong Api-Api Cluster, involved 34 students of the Almacrest International College.

Sabah Covid-19 spokesman Masidi Manjun said the index case was an 18-year-old student at the college hostel in Api-Api Centre here.

“The index case first showed symptoms on Jan 18 and tested positive on Jan 21,” he told FMT, adding that 40 students had since been screened and 34 had tested positive.

Those who tested positive were Category 1 and 2 patients and have been sent to a quarantine centre for further treatment, the state local government and housing minister said.

Masidi had issued a warning earlier on the increase in the number of clusters involving schools after receiving a report from the health department on close contact screening of hostel students at six schools.

He said 367 Covid-19 cases were detected in the state today, six fewer than yesterday. - FMT
