While attributing the importance of maintaining regulations in the community and the mass testing, the Health CS confirmed that 29 of the cases were from Eastleigh.
“That tells you that there is community spreading happening in those areas. We are in the process of consultations with the respective authorities in those counties so that we can determine what action we are going to take,”
9 people had been discharged from containment centers, raising the total number of recoveries in the country to 182.
