Last month I had several dentist appointments in Glen Eagles hospital.

 

  1. First time I wanted to enter, a nurse asked me whether I had just come from overseas. When I said "no", I was allowed to enter.
     
  2. Next visit a Nepal guard asked something I couldn’t understand. When I said "no", I was allowed to enter.
     
  3. Next visit a nurse on the entrance asked me: do you have any flu symptoms. When I said "no", I was allowed to enter.
     
  4. Next visit today a nurse on the entrance took my temperature. No questions where asked and I was allowed to enter.

 

The latter is quite an improvement. One could have asked me again whether I came from overseas, as being an expat , it is more likely that I just flew into the country and I am at higher risk of having contracted the swine flu.

 

In any case, slowly but surely Malaysia is getting serious about the swine flu, or at least this 1 particular hospital is.
