ICYMI: First UCT student who tested positive for Covid-19 has 'fully recovered'

UCT spokesperson Elijah Moholola said the student had left self-isolation late last week, and that since their last update issued on April 1, UCT recorded one further positive case of COVID-19. Moholola said the staff member was currently receiving treatment.

Moholola said UCT has now had a total of seven confirmed cases of Covid-19 – four staff members and three students . Whenever a person at the university has tested positive for Covid-19, the institution has responded to each case. They said the dean of an affected faculty was expected to communicate this to other members of the faculty.
