Sabah records fewer Covid-19 cases today

KOTA KINABALU: Sabah recorded a decline in Covid-19 cases at 1,778 today, state Covid-19 spokesperson Datuk Seri Masidi Manjun said today.

In a statement, he said 17 districts recorded a decrease in the number of cases.

There are only three districts with three-digit new cases - Kota Kinabalu with 511, Penampang at 206 and 168 in Tuaran.

As for deaths, Masidi said there was one case each from Tuaran, Kota Kinabalu, Lahad Datu, Sandakan, Kota Belud, Tawau and Beaufort.

"The stabilisation and decline of new cases depends largely on the attitude of the community in complying with all standard operating procedures and advice by the Health Ministry.

"The community's attitude is a key determinant of our success in combating the threat of Covid-19.

"The percentage of symptomatic cases stemming from sporadic infections in the community is still too high, which is 65.47 per cent today."
