Kano State Government has discharged 40 out of the 50 health workers that got infected with coronavirus (COVID-19) at the Aminu Kano Teaching Hospital, Kano.
The hospital’s Assistant Director, Information and Public Affairs, Hauwa Mohammed, said in a statement on Thursday that the discharged persons tested negative for the virus upon treatment at the state isolation centre.
The hospital’s Chief Medical Director, Abdurrahman Sheshe, was quoted in the statement, saying “It is really a thing of joy to share with you that the review on the tests conducted on those workers who were infected with COVID-19 some weeks ago and put in Isolation has just been forwarded to me and forty of them tested negative, no death recorded.”
He said the remaining 10 workers who were still in isolation were doing very well and would probably be discharged before Eid-El-Fitr according to reports by their caregivers.
