PUTRAJAYA: In her five years of service as an assistant medical officer, Ashidah Abdul Rahman has never encountered as much heartache and mental anguish as she did since being placed on ambulance duty to pick up and send Covid-19 patients to the quarantine centre or hospital.
One particular sight that will remain etched in her memory is that of a couple, both aged 60, who had tested positive for Covid-19 and wished to be quarantined in the same place – the low-risk Covid-19 quarantine and treatment centre at the Malaysian Agro Exposition Park Serdang (MAEPS) in Selangor.
