The patients include one female and six males; three of the discharged male patients are foreign nationals; two Ukrainians and one Italian.

In the coming days, some of our health workers will be moving around in pairs to administer an electronic questionnaire at homes and healthcare facilities to make enquiries about some symptoms like cough, cold and fever.

This is in a bid to intensify our search for possible cases of #COVID19 in different communities across the State known as *Active Case Search*.

These officials can be identified with a #COVID19 outbreak response tag or a letter from the LGA.
