Zimbabwe confirms its first case of Coronavirus

Zimbabwe has confirmed its first Coronavirus case. The first Coronavirus case in Zimbabwe was a foreigner living in Victoria Falls who appears to have been infected in Britain. The patient acted responsibly on his return this week by quarantining himself. Under self-isolation, it was discovered that he had the illness.

Minister of Health and Child Care Obadiah Moyo announced the first confirmed case saying the foreigner had travelled back into Zimbabwe from Manchester, United Kingdom but that the patient had been identified in a timely fashion.

He urged the nation to remain calm and practise the best hygiene as his Ministry continued tracing all contacts. The Coronavirus pandemic has put the nation at unrest with all public functions being banned.
