“I pray for everyone’s health and well-being, and to break the Covid-19 infection chain,” he said.
Zahid, who is the Bagan Datuk member of parliament, underwent swab test and self-quarantine yesterday as he had attended a meeting on Jan 18 with Pasir Salak MP Datuk Seri Tajuddin Abdul Rahman, who tested positive for Covid-19 on Jan 20.
Tajuddin had also attended a press conference last week where Padang Rengas MP Datuk Seri Mohamed Nazri Aziz was present.
Nazri was then confirmed positive for the infection on Jan 18.- NST
