KUALA KANGSAR – The operations of the Fire and Rescue Department in Perak were not affected even though one of its members was confirmed positive Covid-19 last Saturday, said its director Azmi Osman.
Azmi said the cause of the infection of the fireman from the Ipoh fire and rescue station was still under investigation.
He said 11 other members with close contact were instructed to undergo quarantine at home while 23 other members from the same unit would undergo swab tests today.
“This matter does not affect the fire department’s operations because we still have the manpower and can get help from the nearest stations including Meru, Gopeng, and Kampar,” he said. – Bernama, November 30, 2020
