KUALA TERENGGANU (Bernama): A five-year-old Chinese national admitted to Hospital Sultanah Nur Zahirah (HSNZ) here on Monday (Jan 27) after showing symptoms of a possible novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV)infection, is due for discharge on Wednesday (Jan 29) as test results indicate the child is neither a positive nor suspected case for the virus.
She has also recovered from a normal fever and sore throat, said Terengganu health director Dr Nor Azimi Yunus through a WhatsApp message.On Monday, social media posts alleged that a little girl with Chinese citizenship, who was a suspected coronavirus case, had been spirited away from Hospital Kemaman by her parents.
Following a police report which had been lodged by a doctor at the hospital, the child was located at the East Coast Rail Link project site in Kemaman. The child's parents are also Chinese nationals and ECRL project workers, with the family arriving in Terengganu early last month. The couple cooperated with police in taking their daughter to HSNZ for further tests, claiming that they had not made off with the child from the hospital as alleged, and instead did not understand the doctor's explanation due to a communication breakdown.- Bernama
