He said the PKRCs were for Category One and Two Covid-19 patients in the area to undergo self-quarantine and avoid the increase in positive cases due to close contact among family members. Currently, those who test positive but are asymptomatic (Category One) or with mild symptoms (Category Two) are required to undergo self-quarantine at home. However, we find that most of them live in cramped and crowded houses, especially the B40 families in PPR and PA which are not conducive for the purpose, he said in a statement on Monday (July 26).
