Kota Kinabalu: Sabah’s Covid-19 caseload fell to a new all-time low of 79 cases on Tuesday from 100 the day earlier, said Sabah’s Covid-19 spokesperson Datuk Seri Masidi Manjun.
“For the first time since Oct 11, the caseload fell below the 100 mark,” he said in a statement, Tuesday, adding that one death was recorded in Tenom.
Despite collecting a much higher number of test samples (1,745), Masidi explained that the dip was due to a much lower positivity rate, which was 4.53 per cent on Tuesday compared to 9.58 per cent the day before.
Kota Kinabalu topped the list with 16 cases, followed by Papar (13), Penampang (9), Tuaran (7), Putatan (6), Kota Belud (5) and Sandakan (4).
“Thirteen districts did not record any new infections,” he said.
