SHAH ALAM, Oct 31 (Bernama) -- The Sultan of Selangor, Sultan Sharafuddin Idris Shah, has contracted Influenza A and has been advised to rest for five to seven days to ensure a full recovery.
Sultan Selangor, also known as Sultan Sharafuddin Idris Shah, is currently feeling unwell due to contracting the Influenza A virus. The royal palace announced that he is recovering between five to seven days of rest to fully regain his health. The illness was reportedly identified by two private doctors, Dr Anuar Onah and Dr Tan Hui Meng, after the sultan experienced high fever and weakness in his body since early this morning.
According to medical assessment, the sultan might have caught the virus during a public ceremony where he interacted with several people, including those in open spaces.
The health of Sultan Selangor is reportedly improving, but he is still experiencing fever, as reported by the palace. Therefore, the doctors treating him advise the sultan to rest and avoid attending any events during the five to seven-day recovery period to ensure a complete recovery. Subsequently, the Sultan's Diamond Jubilee Celebration and the Royal State Knighthood Award Ceremony scheduled for tomorrow has been postponed to November 7th.
Alam Shah Palace also requested all involved parties to be informed about the date change and to acknowledge the appreciation for their cooperation and concern.
