KOTA TINGGI: The Fire and Rescue Department is taking all the necessary steps to manage the floods that have hit six states in the country, with the situation possibly worsening as bad weather is set to continue until March this year.
Its director-general Datuk Seri Mohammad Hamdan Wahid said among the measures were evacuating those placed under quarantine for Covid-19 at quarantine centres and hospitals if the area is hit by floods.
“We are working closely with the Health Ministry on this matter because we cannot put those who have been tested positive for Covid-19 with other people at relief centres, ” he told a press conference after visiting the Kota Tinggi Fire station here yesterday.
