Mohammed said nine patients were also discharged, bringing the total number of recoveries in the state to 112.

“Yes! We have just discharged nine patients. We have also recorded two new deaths,” he said.

“We are not waiting like other states, we swing into action by treating any positive patient immediately they are admitted.
“We give them drugs that are on trial and they are recovering, the only thing is that people are still having denial in their minds.

“People should wake up to the reality that COVID-19 is real and should come for testing whenever they are having any of the signs as outlined by health experts,” Mohammed aded.
