“The fall of cases in Penampang (-20) and Kota Kinabalu (-13) is the main factor of the overall decrease in Sabah’s caseload,” he said in a statement, Saturday, adding that sporadic infections also decreased to 50.85 per cent of the caseload.
Masidi said Kota Kinabalu topped the list with 58 cases, followed by Sandakan (22), Papar (18), Penampang (18), Beaufort (18), Tuaran (16), Tawau (11) and Putatan (10).
“Beluran, Nabawan and Tongod did not record any new cases,” he added.
