The Tawar and Sivagangga clusters are likely to be linked, says Tan Sri Dr Noor Hisham Abdullah.

The Health director-general said this on Thursday, adding that with the knowledge that the Tawar cluster also has the D164G mutation, the ministry will have to step up its public health intervention action plans to prevent the cluster from having more infections.

With the enhanced movement control order (MCO) imposed in the Amanjaya locality in Kedah, Dr Noor Hisham said they are hoping the cluster can be contained in that area.
