SUNGAI BULOH: Patients who seek treatment at Sungai Buloh Hospital here for influenza-like symptoms have to wait for up to three hours or more.
Normah Sabdani, who took her three daughters aged 1 to 8 for a H1N1 check-up yesterday morning, was upset about the long wait.
Her daughters have been coughing for the past two weeks.
"There is a sign which says children below 2 years old and senior citizens will be given priority, but we have been waiting for three hours.
"The hospital should have opened more counters to check the patients," said the 27-year-old when met at the H1N1 check-up designated area near the emergency unit.
Normah, her husband Gadafi Bardas and their kids arrived at the hospital as early as 8am.
Only two out of four counters at the area were opened to take patients' body temperature before they were asked to proceed for a thorough check-up.

What is the problem now? Not enough medical person? Worse quality of Malaysia hospital? Or the attitude? Or to much patients?
