PETALING JAYA: Health workers are facing a challenging situation at the MAEPS 2.0 quarantine centre in Serdang with more category three Covid-19 patients being admitted.

The Selangor Health Department said the quarantine centre initially had only 60 beds for category three patients in early January.

"Now it has to accommodate 757 category three patients with plans to further increase capacity to 1,000 beds. "This is to support the health system in the Klang Valley in line with the latest increase in the number of patients," it said on Facebook, Sunday . It added that these patients were placed in halls next to the temporary intensive care unit so that more rigorous monitoring could be implemented."However, the quarantine centre is trying its best to separate the categories of citizen and non-citizen patients in this hall.

"The quarantine centre also thanked and welcomed the issue of the admission process mentioned by a complainant and will look back and make improvements to the process from time to time," it said.
