The Ethiopian Ministry of Health confirmed on Friday that there are two other new cases of COVID 19. Approximately 912 samples have been analyzed in the past 24 hours.
New patients (male and under 25 years old) were confirmed in Moyale and Jijiga, Oromo regional state and Somali regional states, respectively. They had a recent history of travel to Kenya and Puntland, based on information from the Ministry of Health, and were in mandatory quarantine for two weeks. On Thursday, a patient was confirmed in Bahir Dar.
The Ministry has also announced that there are seven new recovery cases, making the total recovery case 66. Recorded death is stagnant at 3.
62 patients are in treatment centers across the country.
There does not appear to be a life-threatening case as there are no patients in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU). So far, Ethiopia has analyzed a total of 18,754 samples from suspected individuals in the past two months.
Despite challenges in enforcing some of the prevention methods such as social distancing, something that mocks even after Ethiopia declared a state of emergency, Ethiopia has done very well so far.
What seems to be useful from the experience so far is that regulation that requires that all travelers arriving in the country have two weeks of mandatory quarantine.
The majority of confirmed COVID 19 cases in the country are related to those who had a history of travel after the Coronavirus turned out to be a pandemic.
The confirmed Global Coronavirus case is rapidly approaching 3.4 million, of which 2.067 million represent an active case, as reported by World Meter on May 1, 2020. The number of deaths is 239,278, and the case is said to be Recovery is 1,077,894.
