State Welfare, Community Wellbeing, Women, Family and Childhood Development Minister Datuk Seri Fatimah Abdullah (pic) said this included ensuring their staff remain vigilant when they were off duty outside the homes. "We note with concern that the residents and staff of two nursing homes for the elderly in Sibu have contracted Covid-19, particularly as senior citizens are the highest risk group for the disease. "Initial investigations have found that the infections largely originated from staff members who tested positive while outside the institutions. "As such, we want to remind nursing homes to not only comply strictly with SOP within the homes but also give attention to the movement of their staff outside the homes," she told a press conference here on Wednesday (Feb 17).
