She went to work before being warded

What was particular about the MOH statement was that it mentioned her specifically, while the rest of the new cases were logged in a table.

It also added something of interest:

Prior to hospital admission, she had gone to work.

We hope she recovers soon, and we pray for the health of the people she came into contact with before being admitted to hospital.
