Three-Year-Old Tests Positive For COVID-19

A three-year-old child in Imo state has tested positive for COVID-19 and has been isolated at the Federal Medical Centre, Owerri, the state capital.

This was by the Chairman of the State Task Force Team on COVID-19, Maurice Iwu, on Wednesday.

According to Iwu, the child alongside her two siblings and father tested positive for the virus.

“It is important to stress that the coronavirus is real but not a death sentence.

“The team has started getting calls from people, informing us of those who are sick, which information is usually scrutinised.

“We urge people to continue to observe all the COVID-19 protocols, such as constant washing of hands under running water, use of alcohol-based sanitiser, social distancing and the wearing of face masks,” he said.
