Pretoria – The government of Zimbabwe says it will deport visitors to the country from coronavirus affected regions who do not have valid medical certificates showing they tested negative for the disease which has so far killed at least 3 000 people globally.
“Those who come without medical certificates showing that they were examined by government doctors from their countries of origin, we will simply say ‘thank you for the visit, but we are sending you back,” Moyo said. "There is now a total of 90 893 reported cases of COVID-19 globally, and 3 110 deaths, but in the past 24 hours, China has reported 129 cases, the lowest number of cases since Thursday," WHO director-general Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said.
"The actions these newly-affected countries take today will be the difference between a handful of cases and a larger cluster," Ghebreyesus said.
