It was also announced that Governor Godwin Obaseki who has been in isolation for the past 14 days will personally lead the battle against coronavirus from today .
According to him, the state government, which now has 234 contact tracing, had made the wearing of face masks mandatory for those moving out of their homes. The deputy governor narrated how one of the 11 that tested positive reportedly took a public transport to Irrua Specialist Hospital instead of taking a taxi. He said he was referred to the specialist hospital from the University of Benin Teaching Hospital.
The deputy governor added that the state government had put in place a screening centre to receive anyone in the state for any ailment, noting that “COVID-19 is here with us, so everyone should join hands with us to fight the disease.”
What about provision stores on the street? Will they still be allowed to open?
Edo state should be lockdown.
I give them a week, the Edo State Govt. will open the markets themselves.
UBTH referred one of the patients to Irua, so the no1 hospital in Benin can't carry out covid 19 test...they left him to go to irua on his own instead of taking him dere with an ambulance...good luck tracing those that entered the same vehicle with him...God help us NCDCgov
