Dear Sahabats,
The Management of UNITEN has decided to issue an official statement in light of the 3 confirmed cases of influenza A (H1N1) among our students this morning and the rising concerns about the possibility of staff and students being infected with this virus. It must be stressed that UNITEN is working closely with the Health Department of Sepang and other relevant agencies to ensure that the situation is under control.
The decisions of the Management are as follows:
1. On the advise of the Health Department of Sepang, it has been decided that we adopt an early mid-semester break which will commence with immediate effect (note: the mid-semester break is scheduled for next week). All academic and student activities are to be cancelled and will only resume on Monday, 17th August 2009.
2. There are 3 students who have been tested positive for influenza A (H1N1) and they will be isolated at Kelompok Murni and will be under close supervision of our staff from HEP/Residence Fellow/Dispensary with the help of the Department of Health, Sepang.
3. There are 6 other students who had come down with influenza-like illness and they have also been isolated at Kelompok Murni and will be under our close supervision.
4. All other UNITEN students have been given permission to return home with immediate effect. The students have been informed to travel in their own vehicles or arranged vehicles and not to take public transport when travelling.
5. Students were briefed at 12.00 noon today at Dewan Seri Sarjana and they have been advised to observe good health habits, to avoid close contact with people who show influenza-like symptoms and to reduce the time spent in crowded settings. Students have also been advised to seek medical care immediately if they experience fever continuously for more than 3 days.
6. Some of our international students will stay in campus over the duration of the mid-semester break and they have been advised to observe good health habits and to seek medical attention if and when necessary.
7. UNITEN staff are required to work as normal but those with illness and fever should rest at home and wear facial masks to prevent infection. Similarly, staff are also advised to observe personally hygiene at all times and to seek medical care as and when necessary. Face masks will be provided to all staff of UNITEN latest by Friday morning.
8. All internal activities involving UNITEN staff shall proceed as planned. Safety and precautionary measures will be taken as appropriate such as to check the body temperature of participants before the start of each event. UNITEN’s convocation scheduled for 15th and 16th August 2009 shall also proceed as planned.
9. There will be Solat Hajat at UNITEN’s mosque tomorrow (Friday, 7th of August) under the guidance of Tuan Hj Ali Hj Ahmad to seek the guidance and help of Allah SWT.
We truly appreciate the support of all staff to ensure the control and prevention of this disease more effectively.
Thank you.
