Covid 19 Prior To Testing Positive Tajuddin Met Najib And Zahid

---

 


Pasir Salak MP Tajuddin Abdul Rahman, who tested positive for Covid-19 today, met up with Umno president Ahmad Zahid Hamidi and the former Umno president Najib Abdul Razak at the party headquarters three days ago.
When contacted, Zahid's aide told Malaysiakini that his boss and fellow staff had their swab samples taken for RT-PCR test this morning.
Zahid later confirmed through Twitter that he was tested at Avisena Specialist Hospital in Shah Alam at 11am. 

One of Najib's aides also confirmed that Najib was at the meeting.

Malaysiakini is attempting to contact several other participants at the meeting - which includes several Umno division chiefs - on their health and whether they have conducted Covid-19 tests.
Tajuddin was the latest in the long list of ruling party lawmakers, ministers and deputy ministers to have caught the Covid-19 virus recently.
It is unsure where or when Tajuddin contracted the virus, but what is certain is that he attended a press conference with Padang Rengas MP Nazri Abdul Aziz on Jan 12.
Nazri said he decided to have himself tested after realising that he had come across Umno activist Zaharin Mohd Yassin during the same event.
Zaharin wrote on his Facebook page on Jan 14 that his swab test came back positive.
Nazri said he was currently under quarantine at the Raja Perempuan Zainab Hospital in Kota Bharu, Kelantan.
Tajuddin chaired a meeting at the Prasarana office yesterday. Close contacts have been ordered to undergo Covid-19 testing while others at the meeting have been ordered to quarantine until Jan 29. - Mkini
