DEPUTY Minister of Environment and Water Dr Ahmad Masrizal Mohamad has confirmed that he tested positive for Covid-19 after the second test was done last Wednesday, Bernama reported today.
He is currently undergoing treatment at the Sungai Buloh Hospital.
According to Bernama, Ahmad Masrizal was asymptomatic and the first test conducted on him on Sept 23 in Kota Kinabalu showed negative result.
“After the result of the second test found me positive, I was admitted to Sungai Buloh Hospital on Thursday and now, Alhamdulillah I am healthy.
Since the first test was done, I did not have any signs of fever or cough, but before going back to office last Monday, on my own initiative, I went to do the swab test again and found the result positive,” he reportedly said.
He also stated that while waiting for the results of the first and second tests, he went on self-quarantine at home. – Oct 3, 2020
