TEN maids who had stayed with a Filipino maid believed to have died of severe tuberculosis (TB) have been given the all-clear by doctors.
The Humanitarian Organisation for Migration Economics (Home), the foreign-worker help group sheltering them, said they were taken to a doctor for screening after Ms Jennifer Dignos' death. The maid had died three hours before she was due to visit Tan Tock Seng Hospital's TB Control Unit on Feb 11.
