TAGUM CITY—Some 540 scouts attending the 6th Asean Jamboree here fell sick but only four had been found to have been afflicted with the highly-contagious chickenpox.
Dr. Arnel Florendo, the city health officer, said those found positive of chickenpox virus remained in a hospital but the others had been given the go-signal to return to the jamboree.
He said most of the ailments, such as headache, were due to the changing weather. /jpv
