Health director-general Tan Sri Dr Noor Hisham Abdullah said this brought the cumulative number of recovery cases to 46,501 or 77.7 per cent of the total number of positive cases.

He said the cumulative total of positive cases in the country now stands at 59,817 with 12,971 being active infectivity cases.

Dr Noor Hisham said Negeri Sembilan recorded the highest number of new cases at 318 (32.8 per cent), followed by Sabah (293 cases / 30.2 per cent) and Selangor (115 cases / 11.9 percent).

“The other positive cases were recorded from the Tembok Cluster (12), Matambai Cluster (three), Sandakan Prison Cluster (one), and Remand Prison Cluster (one),” he said at a press conference on the development of COVID-19 here today.
