Siling Hospital Seberang Jaya bocor akibat hujan lebat luar biasa
Pengarah Kesihatan Negeri Pulau Pinang Dr Zulhizzam Abdullah berkata tiada pesakit terjejas akibat kejadian itu.
A severe downpour and strong winds caused flooding in several buildings at Hospital Seberang Jaya (HSJ) in Butterworth, Malaysia, due to an overflow of sewage. Dr Zulhizzam Abdullah, the State Health Director of Penang, stated that most affected buildings were older ones, but there were also leaks in newer structures. This incident occurred due to unusually heavy rainfall, strong winds, and a considerable amount of rainwater, causing widespread flooding and heavy rain in several areas.
No patients were affected by the incident, according to the hospital director when contacted by Bernama. The Department of Engineering and Management at HSJ is taking action to address the problem. Earlier, videos showed hospital staff using umbrellas inside HSJ due to sewage leaks caused by the heavy rain and waterlogged floors.
