Govt gets tough on visitors from affected countries: Produce Coronavirus medical clearance or get deported. The cabinet has approved stringent measures to ensure there is no outbreak of the deadly Coronavirus (Covid-19) in the country. Visitors from affected countries will be asked to produce valid medical clearance certificates showing that they are negative from the contagious virus.

Coronavirus first broke out in the Chinese city of Wuhan and has since spread to other countries killing over 3 000 people. The said medical clearance certificates should show that the visitors were examined for symptoms and tested for Covid-19 at a Government designated institution in their country. Those who fail to produce the certificates will be immediately deported.

So far, over 6 000 people have been screened for the virus at ports of entry especially the Robert Gabriel Mugabe International Airport. Health and Child Care Minister Dr Obadiah Moyo said Government was taking the tough measures to ensure Zimbabwe was not affected by the virus.

“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’,” said Dr Moyo.

“We are doing this to ensure that we don’t have people who bring Coronavirus in our country. We will take all stringent measures to ensure that we don’t have Coronavirus in Zimbabwe.”

There has not been a case of coronavirus in the country thus far. Minister of Information, Monica Mutsvangwa said the two suspected Covid-19 patients who had been flagged down at the airport tested negative and were discharged. She reiterated that the government would continue to monitor them.
