KINABATANGAN: SK Kota Kinabatangan and SK Paris 3 have been temporarily closed for a week to undergo sanitisation after a pupil was confirmed to have contracted hand, foot, and mouth disease (HFMD).
District Education Officer Dalmansa Tahil said the situation remains under control with only one confirmed case and urged the public not to panic.
“The closure was in line with advice from the Kinabatangan Area Health Office under the Prevention and Control of Infectious Diseases Act 1988,” he said on Wednesday.
He also said during the closure, home-based teaching and learning would be implemented, and parents are advised to seek immediate treatment if their children show symptoms of HFMD.
