A total of nine students from the Mahdia Secondary School Dormitory who had to be air-dashed to Georgetown suffering from burns and severe smoke inhalation from the fire that consumed the female dormitory are currently hospitalized at the Georgetown Public Hospital Corporation [GPHC].

The number of students hospitalized rose from an initial six after three more students had to be evacuated yesterday.
