The Ogun State Governor, Prince Dapo Abiodun, said a total of 28 persons have so far been quarantined in Ogun State.
Newsmen learnt that those who were quarantined were those who had
contacts with the Italian, who was the first person that tested positive
to the coronavirus.
At a press conference on Friday, Gov Abiodun said the state
government was leaving no stone unturned as items needed for health
workers had been procured so that they can arrest the situation
immediately.
According to him, the state is also tracing those who might have had
contacts with the Italian, so as to isolate them, adding that “a
contact-tracing exercise is ongoing.”
Abiodun spoke further that the company where the Italian visited had
been shutdown, saying two isolation centres had been set up at the
company.
