These other five people, Abdulrazaq said, are family members of the confirmed cases who “were taken to a different part of the isolation centre out of abundance of caution.”
With the discharge of the seven persons, the governor said 11 persons are left in the facility.
“Two of these 11 are COVID-19 patients while the remaining nine are people who haven’t tested positive but have had varying contacts with the confirmed cases,” Abdulrazaq said.
“They are all doing pretty good, and we wish the remaining two patients quick recovery.”
