We’re not taking any chances, says principal Ellis Lee as students work from home for two days.
Kingsley International School, located in the Putra Heights business area, was closed so that it could be cleaned again and sanitised. Bottles of sanitising liquid were also provided for every classroom.“The school had just reopened after the term break so the student may have contracted the disease somewhere else,” said Lee in a report carried by Malay Mail Online.Schools are more aware of HFMD following the death a standard one student in Plentong, Johor on April 11 of suspected HFMD.Johor health authorities, however, said the death could not have been associated with HFMD as no strains of the Enterovirus 71 (EV71), which causes HFMD, were found in the student’s blood sample.
